Sex disaggregated data is an essential input into gender analysis and the understanding of different economic contributions, situation and realities of women and men. It can provide information about how much women contribute to all aspects of society and economic activity in both their paid and unpaid capacities. Using sex disaggregated data can help governments to decide on and carry out activities that are effective, equitable and beneficial for women and men, as well as their economies and enable women gain the most benefit from their work. The lack of sex segregated data hides the actual as well as the potential contributions of half of the population to our economies and hinders effective policy development. To address women's issues and to build equal society it is essential to develop data collection methodologies which help to understand the actual situation of both the sexes and address the inequalities.
