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
To compete in today’s digital economy, enterprises require new ways to expand AI across their entire organization. Nearly all firms want to do more with data science, but they don't know where to begin or how to properly empower citizen data scientists to avoid common AI gone wrong accidents.
In this session, we will discuss how to approach your journey into citizen data science with existing analytics talent. Proven best practices and lessons learned from successful early adopters of augmented data science will be shared. We will walk through example initiative roadmaps, recommended staffing, upskilling, mentoring and ongoing governance.
