Global Decency Index
GDI is an index aggregating the levels of decency and inspiration derived from decent fashion, directly or indirectly between the girl child and woman leaders/elders from all walks of life. The index formula was invented by Decent Africa, Africa’s leading fashion aggregating brand that strives to promote decency and self esteem among the girl children.
How it works
Followers of popular women, public figures, women leaders among others rate a given individual’s fashion decency out of 10, and a panel of at least 20 expert fashion judges with high levels of integrity also rate decent fashion styles out of 10. The results are combined together for which each sector contributes a specific mark to the Global Decent Index (GDI). Daily, monthly, annual average GDI for a given region is published.
