Research and data
This dashboard is a compilation of indicators that will inform gender-responsive policy action on COVID-19. It is an inter-agency collaboration that has benefitted from the inputs of ILO, ITU, UNCTAD, UNDP, UN-Habitat, UNHCR, UNICEF, UNODC, WFP, WHO and many others.
Research and data
The COVID-19 Global Gender Response Tracker monitors responses taken by governments worldwide to tackle the pandemic, and highlights those that have integrated a gender lens. It captures two types of government responses: women’s participation in COVID-19 task forces and national policy measures taken by governments. It analyzes which of the policy measures address women’s economic and social security, including unpaid care work, the labour market and violence against women. The Tracker can provide guidance for policymakers and evidence for advocates to ensure a gender-sensitive COVID-19 policy response.

Policy Tools and methodologies
La presente publicación representa un esfuerzo conjunto de Organización para la Educación y la Cultura de Naciones Unidas (UNESCO), la Entidad de Naciones Unidas para la Igualdad de Género y el Empoderamiento de las Mujeres (ONU Mujeres) y de la Organización Panamericana de la Salud (PAHO) en Panamá bajo un programa nacional financiado por la sexta convocatoria del Fondo Fiduciario de Socios Múltiples (Multi-Partner Trust Fund) del Secretariado de la Alianza de las Naciones Unidas sobre los Derechos de las Personas con Discapacidad (UNPRPD por sus siglas en inglés).
El documento presente pretende dar una herramienta a la Asamblea Nacional en apoyo de su función fiscalizadora del gobierno para mejorar los resultados del presupuesto nacional relacionados con los compromisos nacionales e internacionales a favor de los derechos de las mujeres y de las personas con discapacidad. Sin una distribución eficaz y eficiente de los recursos destinados a cerrar las brechas de género y desigualdades que afectan a las personas con discapacidad, dichos compromisos no pueden cumplirse.
La asamblea nacional es el órgano que tiene el mandato de fiscalización y control al gobierno; de aprobar legislación que pueda afectar el proceso presupuestario (aumento de impuestos, recorte de gastos, etc.) y de legislar en torno a los temas de igualdad de género y derechos de las personas con discapacidad.

As populations age worldwide, women—who make up the majority of the older population—face distinct challenges and opportunities. This Solutions Session explores how gender- and age-responsive policies can advance inclusive social development through two interlinked dimensions:
- Social Integration & Inclusion – advancing participation, dignity, and rights through gender-responsive ageing policies.
- Poverty Eradication & Decent Work – promoting fair, inclusive, and gender-responsive economies that ensure income security and value care across the life course.
The session will spotlight cross-regional innovations and multi-stakeholder partnerships that empower older women and promote equality across generations.
