Africa Gender Data Network Webinar Series: Methodological Research on Approaches to Gender Data Collection

The African Centre for Statistics (ACS) of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (ECA), in partnership with Data2x has initiated a project aimed at improving the production and use of gender data within National Statistics Systems through the creation of a strong and vibrant network. This Network proposes to pilot in selected African countries to begin to meet identified demand. In addition to providing some training in data production and analysis techniques, the network will also focus on identifying and strengthening best practice in communication of data with a gender dimension and promotion of data use.

This webinar will highlight the latest ICLS standards on work statistics and share key guidance in survey design and data analysis to shed light on gender issues, as well as fieldwork experience and preliminary findings. It will contribute to sustaining the momentum behind better gender data collection in support of SDGs.
