Tabulations
Proposed tabulations for core indicators

• Linked to the Minimum set of gender
indicators
• Represent the minimum analytical results of a
survey on violence against women
• For producing the data as per the Guidelines, syntax,
codebook and table shells (in excel) has been
developed by UNECE and Henriette Jansen.
