➡️In line with previous years, more women than men graduated as undergraduates and postgraduates from the University of Malta, by over 20 percentage points.

➡️Gender segregation across university courses remains significant, with women substantially overrepresented in the Faculty of Arts, Faculty of Laws, Faculty of Medicine and Surgery, Faculty of Education, Faculty of Health Sciences, and Faculty of Social Wellbeing, and strongly underrepresented in the Faculty of Engineering and the Faculty of Information and Communication Technology.

➡️Similarly, more women than men graduate from MCAST, and a comparable pattern of gender segregation is observed in the fields of study chosen by students.

➡️Over the past 3 years, the bench of magistrates has been predominantly female.

➡️While women were underrepresented among judges in 2023 and 2024, the gender gap narrowed considerably by 2025, resulting in a more balanced representation compared to previous years.

➡️Gender disparities in Cabinet persist, with women occupying only 20% of positions over the past 3 years, reflecting a lack of progress towards gender balance.

➡️In relation to MEPs, female representation has declined over time, from 33.3% in 2023 to 16.7% in both 2024 and 2025.

➡️Although female representation in local council positions showed a slight improvement between 2023 and 2024, this was followed by a decline in 2025.

➡️Women’s employment rate has increased in recent years.

➡️Gendered patterns in occupational distribution further demonstrate the continued influence of stereotypical roles and representations.

➡️Women remain overrepresented in clerical, service, and sales occupations, while being underrepresented in mechanical and technical fields, including craft work, machine operation and assembly, and technician roles.

➡️The gender pay gap in Malta is around 5%, which is below the EU average of 11%.

➡️However, the gap remains high in certain sectors, particularly Information and Communication (18.7%), Real Estate Activities (17.4%), Education (15.4%), and Financial and Insurance Activities (15.4%)
