This report proposes a series of gender indicators as instruments to support Member States of the United Nations in monitoring the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women, by virtue of which all Latin American and Caribbean countries, among others, have agreed to guarantee the exercise of the rights established by the Convention, and to adopt all necessary measures to ensure the exercise of those rights. The purpose of these indicators is to highlight the scale and intensity of the different forms of gender inequity within a framework that facilitates international comparability and permits analysis of developments in gender relations over time. This proposal is linked to the gender indicators prepared by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) in the framework of the Millennium Development Goals, allowing monitoring indicators for the Goals to be used as a basis for specific follow-up of countries' progress in implementing the Convention, while also enriching gender analysis of the Goals and strengthening links with the commitments entered into by Member States pursuant to other international instruments. The document also contributes to the efficient use of information, providing a common set of indicators to monitor both commitments and prevent duplication of work in the measurement and processing of statistical data.
