Hi Laura!
There is some gender information from the 2011 Editor Survey:

The country-by-country data would have to be done separately, though, by
downloading the data:

Hope this helps!

Ouch. :/ Given Sue's comments about the importance of fixing the
gendergap, do you know if any research was conducted as part of the
Northern Hemisphere Summer of Research? And if any of that research deals
with different female populations and is actionable? Is there any research
currently being done about women on Wikipedia, especially with the scope of
language and nationality as ways of separating and understanding different
populations?
I was really hoping this would be a lot easier, and we had the research
data, had benchmarks and could just drop it in. :(
