Repository on time use in Latin America and the Caribbean, 2023
The Repository on time use in Latin America and the Caribbean, created in 2007 and managed by the Gender Equality Observatory (OIG) of ECLAC, houses databases, indicators and metadata provided by the statistical offices of the countries with official measurements of time use. In order to promote comparability, the activities in the databases are harmonized to two digits based on the Classification of Time Use Activities of Latin America and the Caribbean (CAUTAL). The above has allowed the OIG to calculate and monitor SDG indicator 5.4.1 and other regionally agreed time use indicators, available on the OIG website and in CEPALSTAT1, with relevant population disaggregations. This brochure condenses the status of time use measurements and indicators in the region, according to the repository updated to date.
