Abstract

AbstractOver the past decades, the detail used to describe the socio-economic context through statistical indicators has evolved in several directions, one of which is the increasing territorial detail that has gone down to the sub-national level. Ongoing trends in gender equality measurement confirm the interest in a more geographically detailed analysis. Recent studies presented by the JRC or commissioned by the European Union’s DG-REGIO have gone precisely in this direction. The use of national indicators may in fact result in a ‘compensation’ effect that may hide very important differences within a single national territory. this is more true in those realities where historical/cultural events have led to known internal differences. This chapter discusses the importance of developing subnational level analyses for gender equality and at the same time assesses the availability of regional-level data within the Eurostat system.
