Sexist Data Crisis
There is a black hole in our knowledge of women and girls around the world. Campaigners say females are often missing from official statistics - but what needs to be done?

Campaigners have argued we are missing data in areas that would help us understand women’s lives better, for example land and inheritance rights. We also explore how women’s work can be overlooked in labour surveys.
