Evidence snapshot for Cabo Verde
Cabo Verde has pursued sustained investments across gender equity, digital inclusion, and environmental restoration. The Lei da Paridade gender parity law increased women's National Assembly representation from 23.6% to 38.9% in a single electoral cycle after 2021, while the Programa Mundu Novu ICT initiative reduced the secondary-school student-to-computer ratio from 208:1 to 65:1 by 2009. More recently, TechPark CV has scaled from 6 training programmes in 2023 to 50 by Q1 2025, employing 311 young professionals across two campuses within 18 months, targeting a rise in the digital economy's GDP share from 7% to 25%. Long-term environmental efforts have expanded afforested land from 3,000 hectares at independence in 1975 to over 90,000 hectares by 2011, though the practices do not quantify broader economic or social development outcomes.
