Uppdrag att stödja arbetet med jämställdhetsintegrering i statliga myndigheter: U2013/377/JÄM (JIM)

The Government has initiated a development programme for gender mainstreaming at government agencies. The aim is to strengthen and further develop gender mainstreaming in government agencies so that their activities contribute even more effectively to achieving gender equality policy goals. Eighteen agencies have been tasked with drawing up a plan for gender mainstreaming that will be implemented in 2014. Selected agencies will showcase good practice and lessons learned about how gender mainstreaming in central government operations can be conducted in an effective and sustainable manner. The Swedish Secretariat for Gender Research at the University of Gothenburg has been tasked in 2013-2014 with supporting the agencies concerned and spreading lessons learned to more agencies via the portal.
