Percentage of beds missing in women's shelters genvio_ser_qual__wave_beds_missing_pct

Time format:
Years
Unit:
Percentage of beds (comparable)
Description:

This indicator provides information on the percentage of beds missing in women's shelters in the countries included in the WAVE Country Reports (2014-2023). According to the Explanatory Report to the Istanbul Convention, countries should provide a minimum of one family place per every 10,000 inhabitants. The data presents the percentage of missing beds in shelters that are both exclusive to women (women-only shelters) and shelters that are accessible to women (but also service other groups).

The WAVE Country Report 2014 refers to ‘shelter places’, while the 2015-2023 reports refer to shelter ‘beds’. These terms are used interchangeably by WAVE (i.e., one shelter place is equivalent to one shelter bed in most countries). If a cell is blank, information on the number of beds missing in women’s shelters for that country/year is not available.
