The Platform aims to strengthen locally-led efforts to prevent GBV through evidence-based advocacy, dialogue, policy and programming in Southeast Asia. The Platform is led by a regionally based Secretariat, in collaboration with Cowater International, Social Development Direct and the Equality Institute ("the Collaborators") which support organisational development and provide technical assistance.

Globally, UN Women’s Flagship Programme Initiative Making Every Woman and Girl Count, known as Women Count, supports Member States in implementing the 2030 Agenda by advancing a transformative shift in the production, availability, accessibility and use of quality gender data and statistics.. Women Count Phase III, covering the period 2026 to 2029, builds on these achievements by focusing on the full gender statistics ecosystem, from the enabling policy and institutional environment to data production, dissemination, accessibility and use. It places strong emphasis on addressing data gaps, strengthening technical capacities, improving coordination between data producers and users, and ensuring that gender statistics are more regular, comparable, policy relevant and accessible through knowledge products, data platforms, dashboards and user-friendly communication. In Jordan, Women Count is an initiative meant to strengthen the capacity of the Government and Non-State Actors to produce and use gender data and statistics to inform and monitor the implementation of Jordan’s gender-related commitments in the 2030 Agenda.
