It is a strategy for making women’s as well as men’s concerns and experiences an integral dimension of the design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of policies and programmes in all political, economic and societal spheres so that men and women benefit equally, and inequality is not perpetuated. The ultimate goal is to achieve gender equality….”.
