Updated Statistical Standard For Gender, Sex, And Variations Of Sex Characteristics Released
An updated statistical standard will inform how
agencies collect and report information on gender, sex, and
variations of sex characteristics, Stats NZ said
today.
The refreshed standard makes definitions and measures consistent, provides guidance for collecting transgender and intersex population data, and is grounded in a human rights approach.
“It’s important we collect data in an inclusive way, and our process for developing the updated standard reflects this. The refresh has involved extensive public consultation, input from government agencies, international peers, and the support of subject matter experts,’’ Government Statistician and Chief Executive Mark Sowden said.
