"Access Info has identified poor record keeping and lack of digitalisation as
underlying structural problems. In our research on the gender equality
indicators, we found that even when data is published it is of poor quality,
not disaggregated, and sometimes significantly out of date.

“Publishing data is not only about putting it online, but making it accessible
and understandable to the members of the public, and allowing its reuse to
generate change,” added Darbishire.

Access Info calls for the publication of all SDG data following the Open Data
Charter
 principles: data available for reuse, both for commercial and
non-commercial purposes, downloadable in machine-readable and in open formats,
visualised, disaggregated and up to date."
