The Technical Assistance Partnership—Expert Deployment Mechanism (TAP-EDM) initiative is working in collaboration with the Office of the President of Kosovo to enhance the capacity to implement national policies, plans, and programs to address and help prevent sexual and gender-based violence (GBV).
The initiative aims to analyze current gender data collection efforts and assess the capacity of involved departments and agencies. It will identify best practices from other regions and develop an action plan for gender data collection, storage, and analysis, setting both short- and long-term goals. Additionally, it seeks to build stakeholder capacity through workshops focused on gender data analysis, governance, and data visualization.
Working closely with the President’s office, Canadian experts Colin Decker and Audrey Wubbenhorst will lead the stakeholder analysis to assess current gender-related data collection across departments and review best practices from other regions. Additionally, they will offer short-term technical assistance and lead a series of capacity-building virtual workshops on gender-based data analysis, data visualization, open government principles in combating gender-based violence, and a validation workshop on the action plan for data strategy and governance.
