Outline The need for gender statistics What are gender statistics? Production of gender statistics International availability of gender statistics Current state and progress over time Gaps and next steps

The need for gender statistics Statistics are essential ingredients for socio- economic planning Critical in focusing international attention on gender equality and equity questions Fundamental for the promotion and attainment of gender equality and equity

The need for gender statistics 1995: Beijing Platform for Action Generate and disseminate gender- disaggregated data and information for planning and evaluation –“Ensure that statistics related to individuals are collected, compiled, analysed and presented by sex and age and reflect problems, issues and questions related to women and men in society”

Adequately reflect the relative situation of women and men in all policy areas Allow for a systematic evaluation of gender issues and of inequalities between women and men What are gender statistics?

Statistics in all relevant policy areas Statistics disaggregated by sex and age Statistics reflecting specific gender issues What are gender statistics?

Production of gender statistics Concepts Definitions Methods Data Collection Analysis Presentation Dissemination Problem identification Gender mainstreaming at all stages of statistical production

Requires taking into consideration the different cultural, economic, social and political factors shaping the lives of women and men at all stages of the production of statistics: –Gender mainstreaming Production of gender statistics

Gender mainstreaming in all statistical areas that can be linked to individuals Social and demographic Economic Business Agriculture Transport Crime and legal Production of gender statistics

Time-use surveys Source: United Nations, World’s Women 2005: Progress in Statistics Number of countries that conducted at least one time- use survey with national coverage, Geographic regionAt least one survey with national coverage Africa7 North America8 South America3 Asia18 Europe29 Oceania2 World67

Surveys on violence against women Source: United Nations, World’s Women 2005: Progress in Statistics Number of countries or areas that conducted at least one survey on violence against women, Geographic regionAt least one survey At least one survey with national coverage Africa134 North America1110 South America85 Asia158 Europe178 Oceania43 World6838

Some critical observations Slow progress in the development of gender statistics Official sex and age disaggregated statistics routinely available only for basic topics in social and demographic areas Sex disaggregated statistics more scarce when issues are more specific and require greater detail Emerging gender issues are still being taken up largely outside the official statistics (violence against women, time use, crime statistics) No clear progress in the availability of gender statistics at the international level

The way forward Why has progress been slow? What activities are needed at the international level to support initiatives at the national level? Need to: –Define priorities –Define ways to make effective use of tools and materials –Share practices that have been effective –Promote the dissemination of gender statistics –Promote knowledge management and information sharing
