Complementary indicators are identified as those in the results framework that are not repeated verbatim in the results framework of another United Nations entity, but are related or provide different but complementary lenses or insights into the same issue, high-level result and/or area of complementary work, such as a Sustainable Development Goal target.
ComplementaryComplementary indicators are identified as those in the results framework that are not repeated verbatim in the results framework of another United Nations entity, but are related or provide different but complementary lenses or insights into the same issue, high-level result and/or area of complementary work, such as a Sustainable Development Goal target.

ComplementaryGaps in the planning, coordination, production and use of gender statistics at National and County level are identified and sustainably addressed
Technical capacity of governments, civil society and other key actors is strengthened to improve the production and use of gender statistics.
Increased data production and analysis to monitor the SDGs and other national and international priorities.
Statistical business processes are increasingly modernized to improve the production of gender statistics.
In addition to results reported by UN Women field offices (shown here), results achieved in countries and territories through the United Nations Trust Fund to End Violence against Women (UNTF) are included in a non-duplicative manner in the global reporting on this indicator (see the Our Global Results page).
Increased use of gender statistics for policy-making, budgeting and reporting is promoted

In 2022, UN Women continued contributing towards ensuring that gender statistics, sex-disaggregated data and knowledge are produced, analyzed and used to inform policymaking, advocacy and accountability for delivering Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment (GEWE) results in Kenya. Results Whereas previously, Kenya had only selected and reported on 34 of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) gender-related indicators (in the Kenya National Indicators Framework (2020)), eight additional gender-related indicators were added in 2022. The National SDG Gender Fact Sheet now includes 42 indicators out of the 80 relevant gender SDG indicators (representing 53% of the Gender SDG indicators). Moreover, out of the 131 indicators in the Kenya National Indicators Framework (2020), the gender indicators are now 42. Notably, 26 out of these 42 gender indicators (61.9%) have been produced and published with technical support from UN Women through reprocessing of existing data. This result builds on past achievements reported on in the 2021 annual report and 2021 RMS report, where UN Women noted contribution to capacity building of the Kenya National Statistical System. This enabled production of gender-related Tier I/II/III indicators, which helped address national data gaps. UN Women contribution The results noted above were achieved with financial support as well as through technical support on: - the reprocessing of existing data to produce SDG 5b1 indicator - Work to inform reporting on SDG 5c1 - Work on indicator 5.4.1 on the proportion of time spent on unpaid care and domestic work. The reprocessing of the time use data was used to inform the National Care Needs Assessment Report (2022) which has provided the road map for the development of the National Care Policy. - Inequality analysis study to inform measuring and reporting on inequality, in line with the SDGs, specifically SDG 10 for addressing inequalities, as well as all other SDG indicators that speak to social sector outcomes with a special focus on children (SDG1-4) and Gender (SDG5). Further, the inequality report provides evidence to support the prioritization of the needs of children, youths, women, and other population groups in national and county development plans and budgets to ensure inclusive growth and sustainable development, and that no one is left behind. Furthermore, UN Women successfully supported the government of Kenya in the assessment of the third medium-term plan (MTP III 2018-2022) and the development of the fourth Medium Term Plan (MTP IV 2023-2027) by providing technical support and funding. The results are: (i) the inclusion of Unpaid Care and Domestic Work, aligned to SDG indicator 5.4.1 as a priority area of focus, and ii) Gender statistics was identified as a priority Programme for the sector in the same period. In addition, UN Women in partnership with the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS) and the State Department for Gender (SDFG) led the development of the National Care Policy Formulation Roadmap. The Roadmap includes evidenced-based policy recommendations on how much work can be supported, informed by the National Care Needs Assessment from 2022 (reported on in the 2021 Annual and RMS reporting). This provides another example of when data was used.Disclaimer and notes
