Abstract

This paper describes how CRVS data is not only critical for reporting on the SDGs, but for guiding and implementing policies necessary to achieve them. Doing so is contingent on the usability, openness and interoperability of data, which CRVS systems help produce. It is this symbiotic relationship between data and gender-related SDGs that underscores how well-functioning CRVS systems are needed for the international development community to achieve the SDGs by 2030.
