If a country improves in the GGGR due to a policy mandating equal female representation on company boards, which GGGR dimension would be most directly impacted?

Correct option is D

The correct answer is: (d) Economic Participation and Opportunity
Explanation:
· The Global Gender Gap Report (GGGR), published by the World Economic Forum (WEF), measures gender equality across 4 key dimensions.
· A policy that mandates equal female representation on company boards directly improves women’s presence in the workforce, leadership, and decision-making roles, which falls under Economic Participation and Opportunity.
