Gender equality in Federal studies and statistics

The FOGE provides a tool and guiding questions to support administrative units in reviewing the relevance of including gender in their studies and statistics.

In its guidelines of 31 January 2024, the Federal Council defined the procedure and requirements for the consideration of gender in Federal studies and statistics. The aim is to improve knowledge and understanding of gender-specific effects and to improve the collection and processing of statistical data by gender.

To support administrative units for applying the directives, the FOGE has set up a dedicated page on its website.
