About the Global Gender Statistics Programme
The Global Gender Statistics Programme is mandated by the United Nations Statistical Commission, implemented by the United Nations Statistics Division (UNSD) and coordinated by the Inter-Agency and Expert Group on Gender Statistics IAEG-GS.
The Programme encompasses:
• improving coherence among existing initiatives on gender statistics through international coordination
• developing and promoting methodological guidelines in existing domains as well as in emerging areas of gender concern
• strengthening national statistical and technical capacity for the production, dissemination and use of gender relevant data
• facilitating access to gender relevant data and metadata through a newly developed data portal (forthcoming).
