Description:

The Gender Statistics Database (GSD) of the European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE) contains data on the numbers of women and men in key decision-making positions across a number of different life domains. Data may cover international, European, national, regional and local levels and currently include 37 European countries. Data covered the United Kingdom up to 2024. The GSD aims to provide reliable statistics that can be used to monitor the current situation and trends over time.

The domains covered include politics, public administration, judiciary, business and finance, social partners and NGOs, environment, media, science and research, sports, and transport. The decision-making positions covered are specific to each area.

A decision-making position is a position from which it is possible to take or influence a decision:

  • within a domain: at organisational level. This restricts coverage to organisations having a major influence in the domain at the territorial level of interest, which is usually national but can also be international, European, regional or local;
  • within an organisation: at hierarchical level. This restricts coverage to positions within the hierarchy that have a major input to decision-making within the organisation.

WMID Methodological report

The sports domain includes statistics on women and men in key decision-making positions in national ministries, national sports federations, National Olympic Committees (NOCs) and European Confederations of sports.

Organisations covered:

Federations of the top ten Olympic sports granted the highest public funding during the latest allocation of funds.

Positions covered:

  • President: chairperson of the highest decision-making body
  • Deputy/Vice-presidents: deputy of the person holding the highest governing position
  • Members: members of the highest decision-making body (count includes the president). The counting includes only members with full voting rights
  • Executive head: highest executive position or head of the highest executive body. Usually referred to as either the secretary general or managing director. For organisations that do not have a separate executive head position, the president is counted instead.
