lyse gender gaps in conjunction with a thorough analysis of levels of achievement in gender equality, as they are prone to change in the context of the crisis or other social and economic transformations. The Gender Equality Index provides a comprehensive measure of equality between women and men relevant to the EU policy framework. The results have shown that the EU is halfway towards gender equality, although there are large differences between Member States in how close they are to the equality point. The biggest gender gaps can be found in the areas of decision-making and the division of time, with the Gender Equality Index also pointing to the absence of suitable data to measure gender-based violence against women. These results show the extent of the work that remains to be done to make gender equality a reality. The Gender Equality Index serves the decision-makers, policy implementers and individuals as reliable reference points, which present the current gaps between the women and men of Europe, in the context of EU policies. The Index can add a qualitative perspective to the macro-level analysis of achievements of the EU within the area of equality between women and men. Comparison over time, through the first update of the Gender Equality Index in 2015, will provide an invaluable assessment of progress of the Member States in reaching greater gender equality. The Gender Equality Index provides decision-makers, policy implementers and other users with a reliable source of reference, which presents the current gaps between the women and men of Europe, in the context of EU policies. The Gender Equality Index enriches perspectives based on macro-level analyses by providing a synthetic, yet comprehensive and flexible, measure that can support the evaluation of the effectiveness of gender equality policies. Comparison over time, through the first update of the Gender Equality Index in 2015, will provide an invaluable assessment of the progress made by Member States in reaching greater gender equality. 144 Gender Equality Index – Report
