  • Description: This report presents a detailed gender analysis of the Life in Transition Survey III (LITS III), conducted in 2015-2016 in 34 countries of the Europe and Central Asia region. LITS is a unique dataset as it covers for the first time issues related to asset ownership, care need in the household and gender norms. In addition, in a subset of the households that participated information was collected for both men and women allowing an analysis of gender intra-household dynamics. In total, over 51,000 respondents were covered in the survey. The results indicate that while gender relations, views, and women's access and use of some opportunities have transitioned to more egalitarian ones, women still face challenges to fully participate in economic activity and have an equal say in household decision-making. Across all countries, women's employment appears to be a main driver of greater quality across the domains analysed in the report
