Although the global majority of teachers are women, this new UNESCO report provides evidence that a glass ceiling still bars women from leadership positions in education. The report also shows how women leaders in education often have a positive impact on inclusion, addressing challenges which disproportionately affect girls, and tend to support professional development for teachers, and foster a collaborative culture.

Government continues to be outpaced in its efforts to tackle violence against women and girls (VAWG) as it lacks a full understanding of the extent and evolving nature of the issues victims and survivors face. In a report published today, the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) is calling for a truly whole of government effort to tackle the unsustainable pressure on support services and the increasing dangers from online harms. The PAC‘s inquiry heard that the services supporting the victims and survivors of VAWG have reached crisis point, with evidence that refuges are having to refuse 65% of requests and community-based services are only able to support half of those who ask for help. The rise in demand is being compounded by the increasing complexity of the cases that services are dealing with, with almost half of those in refuges now presenting with mental health problems. Services also warned of the toll that the short-term and insecure nature of funding was taking on their ability to plan ahead. With 80% of these organisations relying on statutory funding as their main source of income, it is essential that government coordinates all spending on VAWG-related activities and provides long-term funding stability to the sector. The inquiry found that government departments don’t have a complete understanding of either the extent of VAWG, or of work happening at a local level. In its report, the PAC is calling on government to gain an accurate understanding of the extent and complexity of VAWG and to learn from successful local initiatives.

Significant gaps in data on gender-based violence hinder understanding and response to violence against women, girls, and people with diverse sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, and sex characteristics. These gaps enable violence and impunity, reinforcing the risks for people facing disproportionate levels of discrimination, exclusion, and violence. This report represents an effort to shed light on the issue and mobilize further efforts for joint, concerted solutions to improve the knowledge base.
