Abstract

Women still experience limitation to contribute and participate in development and it can affect their well-being
and economies function. This limitation often caused by poverty. Poverty reduction is one of the ways to enhance
women well-being and close the inequality gap. The measurement of poverty is approached by deprivation
referring to the multi-dimensional poverty measurement developed by Alkire Foster. This study aims to see the
condition of multi-deprivation of productive age women in Indonesia in 2018 and explore
the main characteristics of multi-deprivation of women. Secondary data of Susenas 2018 is used in this study and is
analyzed by using CHAID method. The result shows that 27.2 percent of productive age women in Indonesia in
2018 experience multi-deprivation. It is revealed that the main problem of multi-deprivation of productive age
women in Indonesia is caused by poor quality of education. The main characteristics of multi-deprivation of
productive age women are not accessing the internet, working in agricultural sector, living in rural areas, living in
poor households, and being youth and elderly. The topic of multi-deprivation of productive age women can be
used as a reference to develop targeted and comprehensive policies in tackling women poverty in Indonesia.

Abstract

Using data from the UNESCO Institute for Statistics, we document global trends in school life expectancy (SLE) from
1990-2018. Our findings indicate that the global SLE increased from 7.8 years in 1990 to years in 2018, and every
region of the world shared in this growth, although the magnitude of the gains differs among regions. Sub-Saharan
Africa ranked at the bottom of the regions which followed by South and West Asia and Arab states. North America
and Western Europe were the top-performing region in 1990 (14.7 years) and remained so by a comfortable margin
in 2018 (16.7 years). Worldwide, the gender gap was reduced from 1.3 years in 1990 to -0.07 year in 2018. However,
Central Asia and Arab states were found high SLE in males than females. The changes in male-female school-life
expectancy were improving in South and West Asia (3.2 years) followed by Arab states (1.7 years) and East Asia and
the Pacific (1.5 years) from 1990 to 2018. In conclusion, almost in 3o years, School Life Tables indicate ongoing
progress and improvement but with a tremendous amount of work still to be done to maximize school life and
