Data Analysis

Mission and objectives

UN Women, grounded in the vision of equality enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, works for the elimination of discrimination against women and girls; the empowerment of women; and the achievement of equality between women and men as partners and beneficiaries of development, human rights, humanitarian action and peace and security. To support evidence-based policymaking and advocacy, UN Women develops and disseminates a range of regional and country-level knowledge products, including SDG Gender Snapshots, research studies on femicide, violence against women data products, policy briefs, and other thematic publications. These products rely on robust analysis of gender data and evidence to identify trends, monitor progress, and highlight persistent gaps affecting women and girls across Europe and Central Asia.
