Reference: Improving Concepts and Methods for Statistics and Indicators on the Situation of Women. (1988). Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic: INSTRAW.
Year: 1988
Description:
This publication offers a critical review of the concept and methods most widely used in ongoing general data collection programmes in terms of their suitability for collecting adequate, meaningful, relevant and unbiased statistics on the situation of women. Since conventional methodologies used in data colection have often been unable to capture holistically women's work because of inadequate conceptualization, the report proposes long-range goals for improving the quality and relevance of data on the condition of women by suggesting new measures, adaptations of current practices and further statistics research and field experimentation.
