In this study of 99 countries, representing 2.3 billion women (92 percent of the world's female population), 20 indicators measure women's well-being in the following sectors: (1) health; (2) marriage and children; (3) education; (4) employment; and (5) social equality. Original data for each of the 20 indicators were converted mathematically to 5 point scales, giving a maximum total score of 100 points per country. Countries are ranked for each of the five sectors. General conclusions are provided about the quality of life for women worldwide for each of the five sectors. General findings include the following: (1) women in all countries aspire to have equal opportunities with men in the areas of employment, health care, and social status; (2) in no country surveyed have women achieved overall equality; (3) in over half these countries conditions for women were ranked as poor, very poor, or extremely poor; and (4) North American and Northern European countries ranked highest, while Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia ranked lowest.
