National Programme for Substantive Gender Equality 2007-2013

The National Programme constitutes the central strategic planning, having as a main priority the notion of service to the citizen, in particular to women belonging to vulnerable groups affected in various ways by the economic crisis. This priority focused on three main areas of gender equality: a) to provide frontline services to Women Victims of Violence, b) to integrate a gender perspective (gender mainstreaming) in public policies (of Ministries, Regions, Municipalities) and for this reason the GSGE has created a Mechanism to monitor and evaluate public policies and their effects on gender, and promoted the signing of the “European Charter for Equality of Women and Men in Local Life” by 155 Mayors and 13 Governors of Regions, who made a public commitment to implement relevant policies, and c) to promote gender equality in culture and arts
