Building an evidence base • Developing an outcome and indicator framework: • population profile • employment • income, pay and poverty • education • safety and security • health • housing
Building an evidence base (continued) • Review data that already exists at a local level • Explore data that can be obtained through secondary analysis of existing datasets • Identify where new data required, e.g. • Prioritise key questions to address and consider type of study required
Questions might include ... • What proportion of lgbt people are: • employed (full-time, part-time, self employed)? • unemployed? • economically inactive? • What proportion of lgbt people are: • employed in the private sector? • employed in the public sector? • employed in the third sector?
