Who reports it, and since when
No source of these kinds: death and health registers, independent count.
- Single source: nothing to check it against
figure no figure here, inside its range no later figure recorded change
Why the numbers differ
- They come from two separate systems: UNODC compiles police and criminal justice records of female victims, while the WHO Mortality Database counts death certificates of women and girls with the cause coded as assault (ICD-10 X85-Y09).
- Both divide by the female population, but UNODC uses UN World Population Prospects figures and WHO uses the population the country reported, so the bases can differ slightly.
- Where many deaths go unregistered, or many violent deaths are coded as "undetermined intent", the WHO count falls below the police count.
- Small counts make single-year rates jump. In countries with few female victims a year, one or two deaths change the rate visibly.
Common mistakes
- A female homicide rate is not a femicide count. It includes every intentional killing of a woman or girl, whatever the motive or the relationship to the perpetrator.
- The rate per 100,000 women and girls cannot be compared directly with a rate per 100,000 people, which uses the whole population.
