A gender-sensitive budget is one of
the most important means to ensure bridging the gap between policies and the
action plans for their implementation is . It is also an analysis tool to
measure that gender has been taken into account in the revenues and
allocations of the state public budget.
For this reason, NCW, in coooperation with the United Nations Development
Fund for Women (UNIFEM) and the Public Administration Research Center
completed a pioneering study on gender-sensitive budgeting to analyze the
status of women in the public budget and measure the extent to which the
budget responds to women's needs. The study has already been applied to the
Ministries of Youth and Local Development. It has been translated into
English and will be printed both in Arabic and English, together with four
manuals on the following topics:
Monitoring and evaluation from a gender perspective.
Performance-based budgeting from a gender perspective.
Towards a gender-sensitive budget.
Towards gender-sensitive auditing. |
