 note = {Women around the world face a wide array of economic realities, and
live in varied social, cultural and political contexts. But they are also
bound by common experiences which shape the ways that women
interact with the economy differently from men. Efforts to advance the
measurement of women’s economic empowerment must highlight the
systemic barriers that women face using standard objective indicators
and highlight the economic value of women’s unpaid work. Moreover, it
is equally important to measure and account for subjective dimensions
of ‘empowerment’ using proxy indicators that can be measured
objectively (Buvinic, 2017).
This Policy Brief proposes mechanisms for measuring WEE going beyond
the standard measures of legal and pay equity. It makes
recommendations outlining the need to work towards common
definitions and targets for WEE, as well as key actions which public and
private sector actors can begin to implement immediately to have a
positive impact on WEE and build robust monitoring and evaluation
systems to track objective and subjective aspects of WEE. In addition, this
brief outlines specific areas of measurement of WEE for both public and
private sectors, recognizing that countries should measure their level of
progress against their own starting points rather than comparing against
other countries.},
