Coded corpus of the twelve outcome reports of the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women, fifty-ninth to seventieth sessions (2015–2026)

The twelve consecutive outcome reports of the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women, covering the fifty-ninth (2015) to the seventieth (2026) session and 609 pages of adopted text, were segmented into policy clauses and coded against a 33-code, six-domain codebook. The codebook was specified a priori and derived from terminology already adopted internationally: World Health Assembly Resolution 68.15, the six core indicators of the Lancet Commission on Global Surgery, and the Essential Surgery volume of Disease Control Priorities.

The unit of analysis is the individual policy clause, defined as a discrete statement conveying a complete policy idea or recommendation. For every codification it records the session, the page and structural location within the source report, the verbatim clause as adopted, the domain and code assigned, a written justification, the specific inclusion criterion applied, and any exclusion criterion considered. Each session file closes with two summary tables, by domain and by code, in which codes never applied are retained at zero so that the availability of every code is visible.
