Gender‐sensitive concepts and methods of data collection take into account the diversity of various groups of women and men and their specific activities and challenges and aim to reduce sex and gender bias in data collection, such as the underreporting of women’s economic activity, the underreporting of violence against women and the undercounting of girls, their births or their deaths. http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/ramon/statmanuals/files/Integrating-a-Gender-Perspective-into-Statistics-2016-E.pdf
