Will EU follow? Equality through gender responsive budgeting

1 day before registration close! Still time to sign up for this #EuRegionsWeek interactive session about gender-responsive budgeting. Gender-responsive budgeting is not about creating separate budgets for women, or solely increasing spending on women's programmes. Rather, gender-responsive budgeting seeks to ensure that the collection and allocation of public resources is carried out in ways that are effective and contribute to advancing gender equality and women's empowerment. The objective of the workshop is to discuss and share best practice on how the gender perspective in budgetary policy can benefit the entire population. Through an interactive session we will explore how local and regional authorities can effectively use gender-responsive budget analysis, along with legislation, and other practical policy measures to address gender bias and discrimination. Register for the event.
