The Human Opportunities Index (HOI) is an economic indicator that captures the degree of inequality of access to an essential service by different circumstance groups. This index takes into account the average access rate (the coverage) of a given opportunity (service) and the inequality of its distribution. The circumstances included in the HOI are the gender of the child, parents' education, household per capita income, number of siblings, presence of both parents in the household, gender of the household head, and urban or rural residence.An increase in the index can be related either to an increase in the coverage or to a more equal distribution of that service.

Country-specific definition, method and targets are determined by countries themselves.


Atkinson, A(.5)

Atkinson (1970) proposed this class of inequality measures with  a weighting parameter ε which measures aversion to inequality. As ε rises, the index becomes more sensitive to transfers at the lower end of the distribution and less sensitive to transfers at the top. The limit case, ε→0, the index reflects the Function of Rawls which only takes account of transfers to the very lowest income group; at the other extreme, when ε=0, we obtain the linear utility function. This ranks distributions solely according to total income.


Generalized Entrophy, GE(-1)

The parameter α in the GE class represents the weight given to distances between incomes at different parts of the income distribution, and can take any real value. For lower values of α, GE is more sensitive to changes in the lower tail of the distribution, and for higher values GE is more sensitive to changes that affect the upper tail. GE(1) is the Theil index.


Gini Coefficient

The Gini coefficient is most common measure of inequality. It is based on the Lorenz curve, a cumulative frequency curve that compares the distribution of a specific variable (in this case, income) with the uniform distribution that represents equality. The Gini coefficient is bounded by 0 (indicating perfect equality of income) and 1, which means complete inequality. This calculation includes observations of 0 income.


Gini Coefficient (No Zero Income)

The Gini coefficient is most common measure of inequality. It is based on the Lorenz curve, a cumulative frequency curve that compares the distribution of a specific variable (in this case, income) with the uniform distribution that represents equality. The Gini coefficient is bounded by 0 (indicating perfect equality of income) and 1, which means complete inequality. This calculation does not includes observations of 0 income.


Income Share of First Quintile

Share of household income held by the bottom quintile (0-20 percent).

Share of household income held by the third quintile (40 - 60 percent).


Income Share of Fourth Quintile

Share of household income held by the fourth quintile (60 - 80 percent).


Income Share of Fifth Quintile

Share of household income held by the top quintile (80 - 100 percent).


Rate 75/25

The decile dispersion ratio presents the ratio of the average income of the richest 25 percent by that of the poorest 25 percent. This ratio expresses the income of the top quantile as multiples of that of the poorest quantile. However, it ignores information about incomes in the middle of the income distribution and doesn’t use information about the distribution of income within the top and bottom deciles or percentiles.


Rate 90/10

The decile dispersion ratio presents the ratio of the average income of the richest 10 percent by that of the poorest 10 percent. This ratio expresses the income of the top quantile as multiples of that of the poorest quantile. However, it ignores information about incomes in the middle of the income distribution and doesn’t use information about the distribution of income within the top and bottom deciles or percentiles.


Theil Index, GE(1)

The Theil index is part of a larger family of measures referred to as the General Entropy class. Compared to the Gini index, it has the advantage of being additive across different subgroups or regions in the country. However, it does not have a straightforward representation and lacks the appealing interpretation of the Gini coefficient.

Gini, Urban

The Gini coefficient is most common measure of inequality. It is based on the Lorenz curve, a cumulative frequency curve that compares the distribution of a specific variable (in this case, income) with the uniform distribution that represents equality. The Gini coefficient is bounded by 0 (indicating perfect equality of income) and 1, which means complete inequality. This calculation includes observations of 0 income.


Mean Log Deviation, GE(0),Urban

The parameter α in the GE class represents the weight given to distances between incomes at different parts of the income distribution, and can take any real value.

Sum of international concessional aid disbursed by reporting development partners (donors) to the total education sector in a specific developing country. Targets indicate the sum of the scheduled or projected aid. Accounted aid includes activities, projects, technical cooperation and sector and budget support (20%), as it was reported by donors to the Global Partnership for Education.

The 2011 Monitoring Exercise on Aid Effectiveness in the Education Sector was produced by the Global Partnership for Education (GPE) in parallel to the OECD’s 2011 Survey on Monitoring the Paris Declaration. Through this exercise participating donors reported on the international aid allocated and projected to specific developing countries. Data were later validated and/or updated when preparing the GPE Results Report in 2012. Most of the figures were reported in 2011 and in USD. When it was not the case, currencies were converted to USD. Data are relative to a calendar year, unless it is specified otherwise in the country notes.

Consumption per capita (2011 $)

Consumption per capita is the market value of all goods and services, including durable products and payments and fees to governments to obtain permits and licenses, purchased by households. It excludes purchases of dwellings but includes imputed rent for owner-occupied dwellings. It also includes the expenditures of nonprofit institutions serving households, even when reported separately by the country.

GDP (current $)

GDP is the sum of gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus any product taxes and minus any subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for depletion and degradation of natural resources. Data are in current U.S. dollars. Dollar figures for GDP are converted from domestic currencies using single year official exchange rates. For a few countries where the official exchange rate does not reflect the rate effectively applied to actual foreign exchange transactions, an alternative conversion factor is used.

World Development Indicators (World Bank)


GDP growth (annual %)

Annual percentage growth rate of GDP at market prices based on constant local currency. Aggregates are based on constant 2011 U.S. dollars. GDP is the sum of gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus any product taxes and minus any subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for depletion and degradation of natural resources.


GDP (constant 2005 $)

GDP is the sum of gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus any product taxes and minus any subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for depletion and degradation of natural resources. Data are in constant 2005 U.S. dollars. Dollar figures for GDP are converted from domestic currencies using 2000 official exchange rates. For a few countries where the official exchange rate does not reflect the rate effectively applied to actual foreign exchange transactions, an alternative conversion factor is used.


GDP per capita, PPP (constant 2011 international $)

GDP per capita based on purchasing power parity (PPP). PPP GDP is gross domestic product converted to international dollars using purchasing power parity rates. An international dollar has the same purchasing power over GDP as the U.S. dollar has in the United States. GDP is the sum of gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus any product taxes and minus any subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for depletion and degradation of natural resources. Data are in constant 2011 international dollars.


GNI per capita (2011 $)

GNI per capita is the gross national income, converted to U.S. dollars using the World Bank Atlas method, divided by the midyear population. GNI is the sum of value added by all resident producers plus any product taxes (less subsidies) not included in the valuation of output plus net receipts of primary income (compensation of employees and property income) from abroad. To smooth fluctuations in prices and exchange rates, a special Atlas method of conversion is used by the World Bank. This applies a conversion factor that averages the exchange rate for a given year and the two preceding years, adjusted for differences in rates of inflation between the country, and the Euro area, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States.


Coordinating agency of Local Education Group (1=text in notes)

Coordinating Agency (CA) or lead donor in the Local Education Group (LEG) coordinates and facilitates partners’ engagement with the Global Partnership for Education, thus serving as the communication link between the LEG and the Secretariat. The CA has a central role in facilitating the work of the LEG and is selected by this group. The LEG is the local structure of the Global Partnership for Education that bring together partners to develop high quality education strategies and programs. They are typically led by the Ministry of Education and include development partners and other education stakeholders such as national government and public entities, local and international civil society organizations (CSOs), CSO coalitions, teachers' and parents' organizations and private sector providers.

They take place annually or biannually (some countries have more than two JSRs per year). Periodicity, participants and working arrangements are determined by the LEG. An aide-memoire gathering conclusions reached by stakeholders is produced at the end of the JSR.
