On July 22 the newly released “2015 Gender Index – Gender Inequality in Israel” was presented in the Committee on the Status of Women and Gender Equality in the Knesset in the presence of MK Zahava Galon, MK Michal Rozin and MK Aida Touma-Sliman, Chair of the Committee on the Status of Women and Gender Equality. The 2015 Gender Index is the third in the series published by The Center for the Advancement of Women in the Public Sphere (WIPS) at the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute.
Hagar Zameret-Kertcher, Principal Researcher of the Gender Index, presented the findings of the Study and explained that in the last year the Gap between Women and Men in different aspects has somewhat decreased but added that this improvement was due to a certain extent to the deterioration in the situation of Men – mainly in the Labour Market.
The Gender Index has been published for 10 years since the study has been done for the first time in the year 2004.
