  2. Goal 2: Empower Girls and Women and Achieve Gender Equality Relevance: International Commitments (CEDAW, DEVAW, BPFA) Magna Carta of Women and VAW-related laws

  3. Target A: Prevent and Eliminate All Forms of Violence Against Girls and Women • Incidence: • Reported cases of violence against women and girls • Disaggregated (national, regional, provincial, by sex) • Data available from PNP, DSWD • NVAWDocs to avoid duplication of data • PWDs, Kasamabahay, OFWs

  4. Prevalence: • Percentage of women who experienced various forms of physical and sexual violence • Limitation NDHS: women of reproductive age and in intimate relations only. • Data not captured: girls, rape outside of household setting; no data on marginalized sector: PWDs, IPs, Kasambahay, OFWs

  5. Number of cases served by DSWD (VAW and child abuse) - Disaggregation – up to regional only Other input indicators / mechanism:

  6. Comments • Are increases / decreases in reported cases good or bad? • Increase – women are reporting or incidence is increasing • Decrease – women do not report or incidence is decreasing • Target: zero tolerance for violence against women and girls

  7. Target B: End child marriage • Age at first marriage • Data Source: NDHS (collects data for 14 onwards, how does it account for those below 14?) • Get information from civil registry too • Important because of the rising incidence of teenage pregnancies • Does not measure forced and pre-arranged marriages • Cultural context (Muslim, IP) • Those where child marriages occur do not view it as a problem • Request ARMM and NCIP should gather more data on child marriages

  8. Target C: Ensure equal right of women to own and inherit property, sign a contract, register a business and open a bank account • No. of holders of emancipation patents and cert. of land ownership, CALTs, CADT, by sex (DAR, NCIP, and DENR) • Data is available at the provincial level, is data sex-disaggregated?

  9. We need more consolidated data on women’s economic empowerment. We have program-level indicators: • DTI • DSWD • DA • DOLE • Private sector

  10. Percentage of firms owned by women (through the Business Permits and Licenses System) • Data is disaggregated to the provincial level and is sex-disaggregated. (goal by 2016) For the economic indicators we will refer to Goal 8 and request for the data to be sex-disaggregated.

  11. Target D: Eliminate discrimination against women in political, (economic), and public life • Number / proportion of elected women by position (executive and legislative branch) • Number of women in third level (decision-making) positions (executive) • Number of women judges (judiciary) • Number of women who head trade unions, CSOs? • Target: not less than 40, not more than 60 (for women)
