Overview
By improving the quality, comprehensiveness, availability, and use of gender data, Data2X seeks to produce more complete and accurate insights into the lives of women and girls — an essential element for achievement of gender equality at national and global levels. The initiative raises awareness about the importance of gender data; engages in policy advocacy to increase resources and focus them on priority data gaps; and facilitates partnerships among data funders, producers of data, and technical experts in gender and development. Data2X plays a special role in improving gender-sensitive information for economic policymaking by hosting a technical partnership focused on measurement of unpaid work.

Grants to this Grantee
for the U.S. Climate Alliance
The U.S. Climate Alliance is uniquely suited to help states deliver on historic opportunities for bold climate action and maximize the potential of the Inflation Reduction Act to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This grant will support states as they harness new federal resources, creating in-house secretariat capacity to provide technical, policy, and communications assistance to states, at scale, and deliver critical flexible funding.

for the U.S. Climate Alliance
The U.S. Climate Alliance is a bipartisan coalition of governors representing 24 states, with more than 60% of U.S. GDP, 55% of the U.S. population, and 40% of U.S. emissions. These governors are committed to driving the nation’s ambitious climate agenda by working in partnership with each other, the federal government, and the international community. The alliance has an important role to play in implementation of federal climate investment laws by supporting state engagement with federal agencies, supporting the development of state decarbonization plans, and supporting effective deployment of federal dollars to drive decarbonization and community economic development.
