The World's Women 2005: Progress in Statistics
This
report uniquely focuses on national reporting of sex disaggregated
statistics in such areas as demographics, health, education, work,
violence against women, poverty, human rights and decision-making. This
is the fourth World’s Women report since 1990. The previous three focused on statistical trends in the situation of women. Five years ago, the World’s Women
report emphasized that there was a lack of sex disaggregated data and
that the improvement of national statistical capacity – the
ability to provide timely and reliable statistics – is essential
for improving gender statistics.
As a response to the concerns raised in the previous issue, The World’s Women 2005: Progress in Statistics
reviews and analyses the current availability of data and assesses
progress made in the provision of national statistics, as opposed to
internationally prepared estimates, relevant to gender concerns during
the past 30 years. This report proposes a set of strategies to
strengthen national capacity to collect and report statistics and also
for improved mainstreaming of gender concerns.
The
annex reports on the availability of national statistics relevant to
gender issues and provides updated figures for many of the indicators
presented in The World’s Women 2000: Trends and Statistics, plus some additional indicators on the status of women and men.
