Özet:

Gender inequality can be summarized as the situation of individuals failure to provide equal access to opportunities and resources, problems with making the individual presence felt due to prejudices and keeping in the background of other sex on humanitarian issues such as health and education due to their sex. Due to the biological characteristics (genders) of individuals, the fact that they take the second place in fields such as business life, education and health may have negative effects on countries' democracy and economy. Various studies are being conducted to evaluate gender inequality in order to enable countries to see their place globally to minimize these effects. In this study, the gender inequalities of the European Union (EU) member countries, which are included in the Global Gender Gap Report prepared by the World Economic Forum every year, are evaluated. Using the data in the reports of 2017, 2018 and 2020, a total of 14 criteria were obtained under 4 main headings, and Gray relational analysis (GRA), ARAS and COPRAS methods were used to rank EU member states among themselves. A comparison between methods was made with Spearman correlation analysis for the specified period. Based on the gender equality ranking of EU countries in the The Global Gender Gap Report, GRA method was found to perform more successfully than the ARAS and COPRAS methods.
