To promote gender data, its analysis and its use in policy planning, UN Women and CRRC-Georgia conducted a training for young researchers from 19 to 21 March 2025.

Care work is an important factor in the development of each person, family, society and economy. The time that women and men spend on this type of work has social and economic value, but it is often disregarded.

The scarcity of gender data and their provision to broad groups of society in accessible, attractive and simple forms is a global challenge. Therefore, UN Women constantly strives to support initiatives that promote the popularization of data.

Georgia’s Time Use Survey revealed that women in Georgia spend almost five times more on unpaid domestic and care work compared to men.

My main goal is to help people understand and accept human rights and gender equality through art. Equal rights will help people nurture their skills and talents to build a better life without fear of being left behind in many ways – to make independent career choices, be promoted for talents, ask for help, be weak, or be strong, without criticism from the community.

A week since The World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 as a pandemic, the social impact of the Corona Virus is hitting women hard, around the world. Globally, women make up 70 per cent of workers in the health and social sector, and they do three times as much unpaid care work at home as men. As first responders, frontline health workers, primary care givers at home and community mobilizers, women are at increased risk of exposure to the virus. They are also playing a disproportionate role in responding to the disease.

The National Statistics Office of Georgia (GEOSTAT) took its work on gender statistics to another level by launching an electronic Gender Data Portal at the end of 2018.
