Country: Kyrgyzstan

Dates: December 2020 - April 2021

Research Design: This desk research is aimed at developing a series of thematic and brief multi‐dimensional data analyses (analytical briefs) focused on identifying the most relevant analytical determinants for women from different groups. For the present assignment, areas of concern are determined by the vulnerability factor/dimension.  Analytical briefs will be developed based on available statistical data and recourses as follows:

• Women with Disability
• Young and Elderly Women
• Rural Women
• Women Migrants
• Victims of Violence 
• Women with HIV
• Women from Minority groups
• Women in Science and Innovation
• Women in Decision-making and in unconventional professions (Law Enforcement, Justice, Economy, Business)
• Women in Peace and Security

The objective of the assignment is to provide national stakeholders with brief but clear analysis, using a gender lens and other disaggregation factors (such as age, employment and/or marital status, education level, urban/rural place of residence, etc.) to understand statistical data measuring the progress in gender equality and the degree of vulnerability, marginalization, advantages, and benefits of particular groups of women in Kyrgyzstan; to describe the factors and determinants causing a particular status, and make out impact and correlation linked to certain issues/elements/events/areas, etc. (justified and accompanied by appropriate data tabulations).
