Project on Implementing Inequality Assessments and Strengthening Demographic Analysis Capacity
TAGS

ESCAP initiated a project to develop guidelines and technical support for inequality assessments. This has consisted of a three-seminar series during February-March 2021 on different topics, consisting of a webinar and linked Expert Group material. Country inputs during this seminar series and during the planning phase highlighted the need for increased support in conducting CRVS inequality assessments and strengthening the production and use of inclusive vital statistics.

The current project seeks to provide technical support and capacity strengthening to relevant national stakeholders in the five project countries in order to facilitate the implementation of CRVS inequality assessments using secondary data sources. This will involve building capacity for demographic analysis to undertake inequality assessments as well as dialogue with policy-makers to ensure the results are used for policy formulation.
