Measuring Women's Empowerment And Social Transformation In The Post-2015 Agenda

MEASURING WOMEN'S EMPOWERMENT AND SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION IN THE POST-2015 AGENDA We have much more data and evidence on how social norms affect the life chances of women and girls than we did when the Millennium Development Goals were drawn up. ODI and OECD's six measurement areas and accompanying indicators are available in at least 80 countries. By using these indicators governments will be able to track their own progress against investments in women and girls.
