These guidelines were developed by the Subgroup on Equality Data. They are intended to provide practical guidance to Member States on how to gradually improve the collection and use of equality data, with a view to assist them in monitoring the implementation of relevant legislation, policies and measures they devise to that effect. The guidelines were finalised on the basis of systematic exchanges of practices and discussions held in the framework of both the High Level Group and the subgroup, including on how to address the gaps and shortcomings identified in current national practices. The guidelines further build on recommendations from the updated European Handbook on Equality Data. These include utilising multiple sources of equality data, promoting coherent definitions and statistical categories, improving the validity and reliability of existing data collection exercises, and ensuring that sufficient funding is available for equality data collection.
