Evaluation of UN Women’s Work on the Care Economy in East and Southern Africa 

A regional study of gender equality observatories in West and Central Africa, carried out by Claudy Vouhé for UN Women

Sources: UN Women

This regional study offers an inventory and analysis of the legal framework of gender observatories, their attributions, functions and missions. It is based on exchanges with 21 countries, in particular the eleven countries that have created observatories. It compares the internal organisation and budgets of the observatories between countries, looks at operational practices, in particular the degree of involvement in the collection and use of data, and identifies obstacles and good practices in terms of influencing pro-gender equality public policies. Finally, the study draws up a list of strategic recommendations intended for observatories, supervisory bodies and technical and financial partners.

Event Description

WEBINAR: Gender Data: Why and How to Use Gender Statistics to Propel Your Advocacy 

Achieving progress for girls and women depends on accurate, disaggregated data to inform evidence-based policy and decision-making, and hold governments accountable for leaving no one behind. However, collecting, identifying, and using gender data for advocacy can be challenging. Too often, gender data do not exist— and when data do, aren't widely circulated or applied to policy-making.

 

This webinar will equip advocates with the knowledge, skills, and tools to use gender data to drive progress for girls and women. Advocates and gender equality stakeholder will highlight the need and importance of gender statistics, discuss how to find, collect, and effectively leverage gender data in advocacy, and share learnings from successful, data-driven campaigns.
