Goal
Goal 4. Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all)
Target
Target 4.5. By 2030, eliminate gender disparities in education and ensure equal access to all levels of education and vocational training for the vulnerable, including persons with disabilities, indigenous peoples and children in vulnerable situations.
Indicator
Indicator 4.5.1. Parity indices (female/male, rural/urban, bottom/top wealth quintile and others such as disability status, indigenous peoples and conflict-affected, as data become available) for all education indicators on this list that can be disaggregated
Sub-indicator
Sub-indicator 4.5.1.3. Parity indices (female/male) of the population aged 18 to 64 years who have carried out educational activities in the previous 12 months
Type of indicator (global, European, national)
Definition
Ratio of the proportions of women to men aged 18 to 64 who have completed studies or training (regulated or unregulated) over the past 12 months
Calculation method
\[ PSE^t_{18-64}=\frac{ME^t_{18-64}}{HE^t_{18-64}}¿\]Where: \(ME^t_{18-64}\)are women between 18 and 64 years of age who have completed studies or training (regulated or unregulated) in the last twelve months in the year t and \( HE^t_{18-64}\)are men between 18 and 64 years of age who have completed studies or training (regulated or unregulated) in the last twelve months in the year t.

Observations
Up to now the periodicity was five years, but it has changed to six years.The reference value of this indicator is 1, which is taken when parity is absolute.The degree of disparity is greater the further the value of the indicator is removed from 1 and reflects an unfavourable or favorable situation of the population group of the numerator with respect to the population group of the denominator as it takes a value less than or greater than 1 respectively.When interpreting this indicator it should be taken into account that it is not symmetrical around 1.
