Sex-disaggregated data highlights the gendered experience of poverty, which is not captured using household-level data. Despite strong evidence linking women’s asset ownership to development goals, sex-disaggregated data - critical for monitoring progress on SDG targets - remains scarce. The Evidence and Data for Gender Equality (EDGE) project is working to address this data gap. ADB supported household surveys measuring assets and entrepreneurship from a gender perspective in Georgia, Mongolia, and the Philippines.
ADB is committed to achieving a prosperous, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable Asia and the Pacific, while sustaining its efforts to eradicate extreme poverty.
Established in 1966, it is owned by 68 members—49 from the region.
