Gender equality in the realization of the human rights to water and sanitation 2016, para. 67
Paragraph
Paragraph text
Human rights-based monitoring can be built on a framework of structural, process and outcome indicators that serve to monitor not only the commitments made by a State but also the State's ongoing efforts and whether progress is being made to achieve targets on gender equality. Useful examples of indicators to monitor gender equality in access to water, sanitation and hygiene can be found in the OHCHR framework on indicators and by the World Health Organization-United Nations Children's Fund Joint Monitoring Programme Task Force on monitoring inequalities. Indicators on menstrual hygiene facilities, for example, could be used to track gender equality and help to break related taboos.
