Gender Mainstreaming in Development

Gender mainstreaming in development is a strategy aimed at ensuring that gender perspectives are integrated into all stages of policy-making, planning, and implementation. It involves assessing the different impacts of policies and programs on women and men to promote equality and empower marginalized groups. By considering gender roles and relationships, development initiatives can better address specific needs and challenges, ultimately leading to more effective and inclusive outcomes. This approach encourages collaboration and participation, recognizing that achieving gender equality benefits society as a whole.
