Just over a month back, Saudi Arabia nearly broke the internet with the announcement that women can now drive<\/a>.<\/p>\n

And that was just the first in a series of amazingly inspiring things that have been happening ever since.<\/p>\n

Saudi Arabia is making steady progress toward closing the \u201cgender gap\u201d between men and women in employment, education and health, according to the World Economic Forum (WEF)<\/h3>\n

\nAnd WEF is sure that the recent decision to allow women to drive in Saudi Arabia is only going to make things better.<\/p>\n

\nSaudi Arabia has improved three places since last year on the WEF global index and is among the biggest improvers in the years since the report first appeared<\/h3>\n
