Distribution
The dataset is provided in a CSV file format, specifically
most-dangerous-countries-for-women-2024.csv, with a size of 6.29 kB. It consists of 11 columns and covers 176 unique countries. While the country and WPSI 2023 data are available for all 176 countries, the Women's Danger Index (WDI) related columns for 2019 have data for only 50 countries, meaning 72% of the records are missing for these specific metrics.Usage
This dataset is ideally suited for:
- Informing travel decisions and risk assessments for female travellers.
- Academic research into gender safety, human rights, and global security.
- Policy analysis and development aimed at improving women's safety worldwide.
- Supporting advocacy and awareness campaigns by NGOs and human rights organisations.

Coverage
The dataset provides a global geographic scope, offering a country-by-country breakdown for 176 nations. The time range of the data spans from 2019 (for WDI metrics) to 2023 (for WPSI). The demographic focus is specifically on women's safety. It is important to note that while WPSI data covers all 176 countries, the detailed WDI metrics for factors like street safety and various forms of violence are only available for 50 of these countries.
