The bar chart illustrates the literacy rates among two genders in selected countries. Overall, females show the highest persentage in all countries. It is also evident that there was a pronounced difference between males and females in East Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia and especially in Arab States, however in Caribbean and developed countries the gap was minimal. Notably, it can be seen that developed countries exhibited the least literacy in both women and men.
Focusing first on nations that showed noticeable disparity between females and males, while around 56% of women were literated in South Asia, significantly higher than men (34%). The difference was also seemingly enormous in Arab States, where the persentage of women was approximately 52% as opposed to men’s 29%. Sub-Saharan Africa and East Asia also indicated similar patterns, with 48% of females and 31% of men in Sub-Saharan Africa and 20% of women compared to men’s 8 % in East Asia.
In contrast, the rates were almost identical in Caribbean and developed countries. Around 10-14% of both genders were erudite. The similar trend can be seen in advanced nations, where approximately 3% of females and 1% of males were engaged in learning.
