Description

Equality is a core founding value of the EU and equality between women and men is one of the Union’s essential aims. The EU’s approach, therefore, is to mainstream gender equality in all policies. Despite this clear commitment to gender equality and the principle of mainstreaming gender equality in all fields, many EU institutions are yet to systematically apply this policy. Data show a clear gap between the stated commitment to gender equality and the situation in practice.

The module on institutional transformation describes how gender mainstreaming can be implemented in a public organisation. It shows how existing approaches to implementing gender mainstreaming can be further developed and advanced.
