What “gender-sensitive data” is, I have no idea.
Via Weekly Standard:
Deputy Secretary of State for Management and Resources Heather Higginbottom joined former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg in New York Monday for a Data2X event to “promote gender-sensitive data.” Data2X is a United Nations Foundation sponsored organization that, according to its website, is:
“Named for the power women have to multiply progress in their societies, advances gender equality and women’s empowerment…[b]y building partnerships to improve data collection and demonstrating how better data on the status of women and girls can guide policy, leverage investments, and inform global development agendas.”
According to the State Department, “the empowerment of women and girls a foundational goal of U.S. foreign policy,” and toward that end, the U.S. government is backing Data2X’s goal of increasing the volume of data on “health, education, economic opportunities, political participation, and human security” that is available broken down by sex.
