Solutions in Scarcity: Harnessing Development Assistance for Smart Gender Data Financing
Data2X, Open Data Watch, PARIS21, and UN Women invite you to attend the upcoming hybrid event “Solutions in Scarcity: Harnessing Development Assistance for Smart Gender Data Financing” on Thursday 23 February 2023 from 9-11AM ET at the UN Foundation in Washington, D.C. and online.
As the third event in the Navigating the Landscape of Gender Data Financing series, it will build on and complement the solutions identified at the country-level, highlighting ongoing efforts by development assistance providers to achieve gender equality by prioritizing gender data. It comes at a particularly critical moment in relation to the latest PRESS findings: a sharp decline in funding for gender data is putting SDG 5 at risk.
