The section Making Gender Statistics contains information on the development, presentation, and dissemination of gender statistics and indicators. This includes information on international guidelines, recommendations, and standards for concepts, definitions, classifications, and methods of data collection. It also provides a useful guide on "best practices" for presentation, analysis, and dissemination of gender statistics.
In Gender Issues useful information on gender issues as well as on national and international policies in the ECE region is presented.
Statistics contains a set of indicators relevant for countries in the ECE region and suitable for monitoring women's progress relative to men in all relevant policy areas.
We also plan to establish a network linking the websites of the countries in the ECE region through a common framework developed to allow easy comparison and communication among countries. At the same time, the framework shall be flexible enough to be adapted to the specific needs and circumstances of each country in the region. Through this international network of interconnected websites containing important information on activities, existing publications, and other materials on gender statistics, the website will also provide a comprehensive review of the ongoing work worldwide.
All information presented in the website comes from the experience of international experts in the areas of gender issues, policies, and statistics, and from past or ongoing work in the development of gender statistics at the country and the international levels.
