The 'Gender Inequality Index' (GII) introduced by the UNDP in the 2010 Human Development Report measures inequality across which of the following domains?
The GII is a composite metric of gender inequality that captures the loss of achievement within a country due to gender inequality in three dimensions: reproductive health, empowerment, and the labor market.
Which governance metric specifically evaluates the extent to which public power is exercised for private gain, including both petty and grand forms of corruption?
The Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI), published by Transparency International, is specifically designed to measure the perceived levels of public sector corruption, focusing on the abuse of entrusted power for private gain.
The HDI is a composite index measuring three basic dimensions of human development: a long and healthy life (measured by life expectancy at birth), knowledge (measured by mean years of schooling and expected years of schooling), and a decent standard of living (measured by GNI per capita). Political participation is not a component of the HDI.
