Commitment title:

Improving data quality to improve programs for girls and women in India

Commitment description:

The 3D Program for Girls and Women advances gender equality and girls and women’s empowerment by helping local governments work more efficiently across departments, and with civil society and the private sector, to increase economic opportunities for girls and women and address their health, education and safety needs. We believe that girls and women are best served when traditional boundaries are crossed and the barriers of siloes are broken so that stakeholders – including girls and women themselves - can come together to get things done. We call it good governance through convergent action.

The 3D Program is working with local government in India to improve data quality, collection, sharing and use at the village, block, district and state levels to inform programs that aim to improve outcomes for girls and women.
