Percentage of official indicators at the population level that are disaggregated by sex.

Definition:

Ratio between: (i) numerator: total number of official indicators at the population level that have gender-disaggregated information, and (ii) denominator: total number of official indicators at the population level, multiplied by 100.

 

Notes:

The data can be obtained through national statistical offices and reinforced with information from the national mechanisms for the advancement of women. The source should provide the detail of this indicator, with breakdowns by area or sector.

Increasing the number and proportion of official indicators relating to the population for which there is gender-disaggregated information makes it possible to monitor progress towards gender equality more effectively.
