Bridging the Gap: Mapping Gender Data Availability in Latin America and the Caribbean. Key findings and recommendations

Bridging the Gap: Mapping Gender Data Availability in Latin America and the Caribbean is a regional deep dive assessing the availability and quality of data about women and girls in five countries in Latin America and the Caribbean. The introduction of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) increased demand for disaggregated data to support decision makers and implementers. In particular, expectations for the information that data can provide on the lives of women and girls have risen. This report offers insights on where gaps in gender data exist, why gaps occur, and what can be done to fill them and deliver on commitments to improve the lives of women and girls.
