Equal Measures 2030 (EM2030) aims for a world in which every girl and woman counts and is counted. This unique partnership, led by civil society and the private sector, connects data and evidence with advocacy and action on gender equality. We work to ensure that girls’ and women’s movements, advocates and decision-makers have the data they need, when they need them, and in a form they can use to guide their pursuit of the gender equality commitments in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). EM2030 was formed in 2016 by a group of cross-sector partners who united their resources, skills, networks and ambition to use data and bring new and critical insights, stories and action to help achieve collective impact for girls and women. The partnership is a joint effort of leading regional and global organizations from civil society and the development and private sectors, including: the African Women’s Development and Communication Network (FEMNET), Asian-Pacific Resource and Research Centre for Women (ARROW), Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Data2X, the International Women’s Health Coalition (IWHC), KPMG International, ONE Campaign, Plan International and Women Deliver.
