BAB 013/05: Mapping Gender

Analysis and graphical presentation of gender-disaggregated data in the field of agriculture and rural areas

Gender-adequate and gender-equitable statistics - gender statistics - should help to make gender-specific inequalities visible and increase the overall understanding of the different situations of women and men. Gender-equitable collection and processing of statistics is not only necessary to ensure general comparability between women and men, it is also essential in order to be able to adequately record, measure and assess the participation and involvement of women and men in the economy, politics and society. Based on the evaluation of existing statistical databases, this project aims to analyse and graphically present gender-disaggregated data - mapping gender - in the field of agriculture and rural areas.

Status of the project and work in 2025

In 2024, the fact sheet ‘Use of digitalisation by women in agriculture’ was produced and gender-specific aspects of access to and use of digitalisation in rural areas will subsequently be analysed. In 2025, the following topics are also planned for processing: ‘Provision of childcare/facilities in rural regions of Austria’ and ‘Networks of women from a regional economic perspective’.
