TUF. Counting women: Why sex‑based data still matters

In this episode of The Unmoved Feminist, Liv and Martine go back to basics on something that shapes what governments see and what they ignore: sex‑disaggregated data. They trace how second‑wave feminists fought to get women counted separately in crime figures, labour force surveys and time‑use data, so we could prove what women already knew from our lives: that men overwhelmingly commit the violence, and that women carry the costs in unpaid care, low pay and poverty in older age.__DonateIf you wish to donate to AAWAA you can do so by making a direct deposit or bank transfer to:Account name: Affiliation of Australian Women’s Advocacy AlliancesAccount number: 04201471BSB: 325-185__Disclosure statementVoices in this podcast are AI-generated clones of real, named AAWAA members, created and used with their informed consent to help amplify women's words and stories.
