Gender mainstreaming in public policy and budgeting

Programme Description

Gender equality is a core value of the EU, a fundamental right and key principle of the European Pillar of Social Rights. The need to improve gender equality has also been highlighted in several Member States’ Country Specific Recommendations. Against this backdrop, the “Gender Mainstreaming in Public Policy and Budgeting” Project is designed in response to several Member States’ requests for technical support. The project aims at supporting nine beneficiary authorities in seven Member States, at central or decentralised level, including administrations in charge of gender equality policies, sectorial policies or in charge of budgetary processes. The three-day Opening Conference co-hosted by Expertise France and the EUI is the first formal activity of the project. The conference will consist of opening and closing plenary sessions, interactive thematic sessions, a series of discussions and workshops on the importance of policies tackling gender inequalities, and presentation of current practices and procedures, needs and challenges for mainstreaming gender at European level and beyond.

The project funded by the DG Reform is implemented by Expertise France in partnership with the European University Institute (EUI) and the European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE).
