Gender Mainstreaming
Achieving gender equality by 2030 implies to implement context-specific, multiple-track gender mainstreaming strategies, explicitly incorporating both gender integrated approaches in existing ‘universal’ (or all-inclusive) policies and programmes, and gender-targeted or focused work to advance gender equality and women’s empowerment within specific sectors, social groups and/or in central or local institutions. This multiple-track strategy should be adopted as an essential good practice for the achievement of all the sustainable goals of Member States and United Nations entities. It should be informed by policy commitments and priorities, context analysis, sexo specific data collection, leading to prioritization, strategy diversification and regular adjustments as required.
