This online workshop explored the role of data in accountability for gender equality in education, through the work of the Accountability for Gender Equality in Education (AGEE) project. The session presented the project’s work in constructing national dashboards on gender equality in education, and explored the issues and methodological challenges that have emerged in these processes. The workshop shared some initial findings from the dashboards, showing some of the potential ways the data illuminates particular areas of discussion, and also shared initial work on the composite indicator. Finally the workshop highlighted some of the gaps in data, professional expertise, and opportunities for dialogue that have emerged through work on AGEE and outline how upcoming initiatives aim to address some of these issues.
The workshop was simultaneously translated into Russian and Arabic and over 180 people attended. More details can be found here: NORRAG –KIX EMAP Workshop: Cross-National Dashboards for Accountability for Gender Equality in Education – NORRAG
