Good Practices in Promoting Gender Equality in ILO Technical Cooperation Projects

Good practices in promoting gender equality.pdf 228.44 KB

This publication aims to support the implementation of the ILO's Policy on Gender Equality by sharing good practice elements of gender mainstreaming strategies applied in selected technical cooperation projects.

The publication is first and foremost intended for ILO staff, tripartite constituents - governments, employers' and workers' organizations - and other stakeholders associated with the implementation of ILO technical cooperation projects and programmes. Additionally, some of the elements identified throughout the case studies should be of interest to other development practitioners dedicated to integrating gender equality concerns into their work.

Although the case studies contained in this publication are context-specific, they present elements that can easily be adapted and tailored to other circumstances. An attempt is therefore made throughout the publication to highlight replicable elements.

The case studies demonstrate how the projects have integrated elements in the design and implementation phases to advance gender equality. Although these elements may not exhaust the different ways in which gender equality can be promoted in the project cycle, they clearly exemplify the "building blocks" of strategies that have proven successful in terms of making project achievements more responsive to gender equality.
