H4. Production and dissemination of statistics disaggregated by sex

Good quality statistics that allow the situation of women and men to be compared and contrasted are crucial both as an evidence base for informed policy making and for awareness raising. Hence strategic objective H3 of the BPfA aims to ensure that the relevant data are routinely collected and openly disseminated. To monitor this objective, indicator H4 comprises two sub-indicators:

  • H4a: Government commitment to the production of statistics disaggregated by sex
  • H4c: Effectiveness of efforts to disseminate statistics disaggregated by sex

Important note: due to changes to the questions used to populate the indicators, the data prior to 2021 are not comparable through time. Data for 2021 and 2024 are considered comparable (see 2024 methodological report).

In relation to indicator H4, the officially adopted version includes a sub-indicator H4b on governmental commitment to the dissemination of gender statistics but it was found that the relevant laws, regulations or other agreements were largely the same as for H4a on production of statistics. Hence from 2021, H4b is not used as a separate sub-indicator and the relevant information is effectively covered as part of sub-indicator H4a.

Labels for each of the indicators and sub-indicators show the maximum score possible and how this has changed through time.

For more information on how this data was collected by EIGE, please see the 2024 methodological report
