Report of African Group on Gender Statistics (AGGES)

The United Nations Statistics Division has established a Global Gender Statistics Programme with the primary objective of building capacities of countries to collect, disseminate and use quality gender statistics. The programme is intended to advance gender statistics through the promotion of synergies among the existing initiatives at the international, regional and country level. Under the programme, the Global Forum on Gender Statistics was held thrice since 2007 where knowledge and experience in the field of gender statistics at international, regional and national levels were exchanged. The Inter-Agency and Expert Group (IAEG) on Gender Statistics, comprising representatives of the gender statistics programmes of international, regional and national institutions were set up in 2007 to promote collaboration among the key stakeholders and to provide guidance to the programme on future directions.
