Global Prevalence of Female Mobility Disabilities

Adjusted prevalence data estimates the percentage of female persons with at least a lot of functional difficulty related to mobility. The dataset is produced by the Disability Data Hub (DDH) and aggregated via the World Bank platform. Temporal coverage and the number of country-years are not specified.

Use Cases

• Analyze trends in female_mobility_disability_prevalence across countries and years.
• Model the relationship between this prevalence metric and other socioeconomic indicators from World Bank data.
• Benchmark national performance on disability inclusion for female populations using the adjusted percentage figures.

Strengths

• Data is focused on a specific, policy-relevant demographic (female persons).
• Provides an adjusted prevalence measure, suggesting methodological standardization for cross-country comparison.
• Sourced from the authoritative Disability Data Hub via the World Bank platform.

Limitations

• The total number of data points (rows) and temporal coverage are unknown.
• Specific calculation methodology for 'adjusted prevalence' and 'at least a lot of functional difficulty' is not detailed.
• Lacks accompanying raw survey data or confidence intervals for the estimates.
