Description

A dataset compiled from internationally recognized sources, constructed as a cross-country panel for empirical analysis. The dataset integrates Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) indicators from Sachs et al. (2025), including the overall SDG Index, SDG 5 (Gender Equality), and SDG 8 (Decent Work and Economic Growth). These are combined with data on Female Labor Force Participation (FLFP) and a composite Gender Equality Index obtained from IMF-based gender datasets (Gender Equality & IMF, 2025; IMF, 2025). The resulting Global SDG–Gender Panel Dataset provides harmonized country-year observations, enabling consistent comparison of development outcomes, gender conditions, and labor participation across countries and over time.
