Understanding Differences to Promote Gender-Responsive Policies
Sex-Disaggregated Data (SDD) refers to the systematic collection, analysis, and presentation of data classified by sex. It enables institutions to identify gender-based trends, gaps, and inequalities among students, employees, and stakeholders. By making differences visible, SDD supports evidence-based planning, inclusive decision-making, and the development of gender-responsive programs and policies that promote fairness, equal opportunities, and sustainable development.
Sex-Disaggregated Data (SDD) for Employees
Sex-Disaggregated Data (SDD) for Employees involves the collection and analysis of workforce data classified by sex to assess representation, participation, and outcomes within the institution. This includes information on employment status, rank and position, compensation, promotions, training opportunities, and benefits. SDD for Employees supports gender-responsive human resource policies, ensures equitable treatment, identifies gaps in career advancement, and promotes a fair, inclusive, and productive workplace.
Sex-Disaggregated Data (SDD) for Students
