Quietly, steadily, one of the great equality stories of our time. % of women globally who can read and write has climbed from 61% in 1976 to 85% today. Huge strides for both sexes. Still not equal - but closer than ever.

@aaron @infobeautiful Yeah, I was wondering about the graph at first and… why not just have two lines use the same horizontal axis? It would then be MUCH easier to see the gap at any given point along the chart.
Information may be beautiful. But clear, well-presented information is even more beautiful!
