Sub-indicator

Sub-indicator 4.5.1.2. Índices de paridad (entre zonas rurales y urbanas) de la población de 15 a 64 años que estudian formación académica o capacitación en las cuatro últimas semanas

Type of indicator (global, European, national)
  • Global
Definition

Ratio of 15 to 64 year-olds living in municipalities with less than 10,000 inhabitants (rural area) to those not (urban area) who have carried out educational activities (formal or non-formal) in the last 12 months

Calculation method

\[UPPE_{15-64}^{t}=\frac{PE_{rural,15-64}^{t}}{PE_{urbana, 15-64}^{t}} \cdot 100 \]Where: \( PE_{rural,15-64}^{t}\)is the population between 15 and 64 years old who reside in municipalities of rural area in the year t and \(PE_{urbana, 15-64}^{t}\)is the population between 15 and 64 years old who reside in municipalities of urban area in the year t.

Observations

The reference value of this indicator is 100, which is obtained when parity is absolute. The degree of disparity is greater the further away from 100 the value of the indicator, reflecting an unfavourable or favorable situation of the population group of the numerator with respect to the population group of the denominator as it takes a value below or above 100, respectively. In interpreting this indicator it should be taken into account that it is not symmetrical around 100. Rural : municipalities up to 10000 inhabitants (inclusive) Urban: municipalities with more than 10000 inhabitants
