2 Background We are celebrating fifteen years of sustained work, of sharing experiences and good practices, year after year; of reflecting and debating on the requirements and challenges to incorporate the gender perspective into the production and information analysis. Fifteen years of commitment to the implementation of public policies designed to eradicate gender inequality and discrimination. Fifteen years of improving the evidence for public policies oriented to empower women and achieve substantive equality. Gender statistics have taken a central position in the agenda of equality between men and women. The Beijing Platform agreed on, almost 20 years ago, contemplates the strengthening of National Women s Machineries (NWM), as well as the integration of gender perspective into public policies as a core axis for the advancement of women, all supported by empirical evidence. In this sense, gender statistics have become an essential tool for accountability and for evaluating women s progress in the world. The production of gender statistics constitutes a commitment taken up by the State Parties through several Women s Rights instruments, the most ample of which is the Convention to Eliminate All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW). This Convention establishes that the State Parties shall produce and analyze gender statistics in order to sustain upon strong foundations, the reports submitted to the CEDAW Committee. The production of gender statistics has also been a reason for concern and compromise, of regional consensus and declarations of National Women s Machineries. Nowadays, we have a unique, historical opportunity to advance towards the inclusion of a transformative objective for gender equality within sustainable development agenda post 2015; and to mainstream gender in all goals and objectives concerning this agenda. In this context it is necessary to assess the progress on gender statistics in Latin America and the Caribbean, by sharing initiatives, lessons learned and good practices it is likewise important to reflect on emerging issues and new methodologies in developing statistical areas (economic empowerment, violence against women and decision making). agenda Aghhs INGL.indd 2
3 A Review of Work on Gender Statistics in the Americas The generation of statistical information to meet the demands for the creation of a new agenda for sustainable development requires a profound transformation concerning the generation of data and imposes unprecedented challenges on its usage for supporting gender equality policies. In this sense, institutional partnerships, interagency coordination and South-South cooperation on gender statistics become particularly significant for achieving a greater harmonization in the progress of Latin American countries. The momentum awarded to the generation of gender-sensitive statistics by international organizations as well as women s organizations in global forums, has helped revitalized States commitment to assume the challenges posed by gender inequality and discrimination against women. Having strong data might accurately show the magnitude and complexity of gender inequality, its causes and consequences, constitutes both a challenge and an opportunity for National Statistics Offices and for the institutions which hold the responsibility of public policy making. In 1999, after the Beijing Conference, the institutional working in the field of gender statistics in the Americas took a major step with the First International Meeting on Gender Statistics which took place in the city of Aguascalientes, Mexico, organized by INEGI and UNIFEM (the forerunner of UN Women). This meeting was the first in a series of annual meetings between Representatives of National Statistical Offices (NSOs) and Mechanisms for the Advancement of Women (MAWs). Since then, the meetings have provided an opportunity for reflection, analysis and discussion between users and producers of gender sensitive information. During the first meeting, the main concern expressed by the participants, was the institutionalization of an initiative to share knowledge and best practices, in a framework designed to achieve the harmonization and comparability of gender statistics in the region and the promotion of South-South cooperation. Thus, at the 7 th Meeting (2006), participants agreed on the creation of a Working Group on Gender Statistics (WGGS) by the Statistical Conference in the Americas, to be coordinated jointly by INEGI and the Technical Secretariat for the Division of Gender Affairs (DGA-ECLAC) with technical assistance from the National Institute for Women and UN Women. In 2007 the WGGS was approved, with a work program supported by the same institutions. 1 As a result of fifteen years of meetings, an important progress has been achieved through the contributions made by this network of ONEs and MAMs at the global level, by the United Nations Statistics Division and the development of the Inter-Institutional Group of Experts on Gender Statistics working plan, as well as capacity building activities contained in the WGGS working plan of the CEA. 1 Member countries of WGGS of SCA/ECLAC: Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras, Jamaica, Mexico, Panama, Venezuela. agenda Aghhs INGL.indd 3
