January – May 2021
This Report proposes a set of quantitative and qualitative indicators that cities can use to measure gender equity. By using an intersectional lens and specifically calling for data collection disaggregated by SOGIESC, the task force moves beyond current processes of measuring along the gender binary and seeks to make other gender identities and the LGBTQIA+ population more visible and city-wide data collection processes. Overall, the 52 priority indicators proposed in this Report aim to help decision makers gather an outcome-oriented data set with an ultimate goal of creating systemic change within across different cultural contexts and city sizes.
