Comparative Evaluation of Indicators for Gender Equity and Health

This paper provides the summary of three interrelated reports:

  1. An annotated bibliography on indicators for gender equity, gender equality and health (including: conceptual frameworks, development of indicators and indices, and monitoring strategies);

  2. A Health Information Framework (rather than a conceptual model about determinants of health) that defines the parameters within which the indicators could be examined, along with issues associated with indicator development and use;

  3. An audit of indicators used by key international organizations concerned with gender and health, or proposed by international organizations for development and use.
