DescriptionEdit
Wikigender is your one-stop-resource on gender equality. The website, which was launched by the OECD Development Center in March of 2008, provides a rich base of detailed country reports, statistical data, and in-depth analyses of current and emerging gender topics. What is more, the platform allows you to be an active part of the Wikigender community, augmenting and improving available information via comments, edits, or new material that you can draft or upload into this knowledge-base.
Wikigender tries to gather empirical evidence, and identify adequate statistics to measure gender equality. In this respect, Wikigender serves as a pilot project for the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Global Project on Measuring the Progress of Societies. Based upon the work of the OECD Gender, Institutions and Development Data Base, Wikigender aims to highlight the importance of social institutions such as norms, traditions, and cultural practices that impact gender equality.

Quality controlEdit
Websites based on “wiki” technology invite the public to modify the content displayed on the pages. It is therefore important to have mechanisms in place that ensure high quality of information. Wikigender has implemented several of these mechanisms and created an effective quality control system.
Project teamEdit
Wikigender is managed by a small team of gender experts at the OECD Development Centre, Paris.
- Project manager: Angela Hariche
- Senior advisor: Johannes Jütting
- Partnerships and Editorial development: Estelle Loiseau
