Gender mainstreaming in water policy

Gender mainstreaming in water policy is the practice of integrating gender considerations into water management and decision-making processes. This means recognizing that men and women often have different roles, needs, and access to water resources. By ensuring both genders have a voice and equitable access in water policies, we can create more effective and sustainable solutions to water issues. This approach helps to address inequalities, improve community participation, and enhance the overall management of water resources, ultimately benefiting everyone and promoting social justice.
