Abstract
This Government Decision primarily addresses the national strategic framework for implementing gender equality policies from 2025 to 2028, emphasizing the integration of gender considerations into various sectors, including governance, social-economic development, education, health, and climate change.
It operates within the broader context of international commitments, such as the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), the Beijing Declaration, and the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDG 5 on gender equality.
The policy aims to align national legislation and practices with these international standards, focusing on eliminating gender-based discrimination and promoting equal participation of women and men across societal domains.
Key measures outlined include the development and revision of legal and normative frameworks, such as the enhancement of the National Mechanism for Women's Advancement. The document details specific action plans, such as conducting gender impact assessments of strategic documents, implementing training programs for public servants, and raising public awareness through media campaigns. It emphasizes the importance of institutional responsibilities, including the roles of the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs, the Ministry of Education, and other agencies, with specified timelines for research, policy revision, and capacity building activities.
The plan also highlights the necessity of establishing monitoring and evaluation mechanisms, including the use of gender-disaggregated data, regular reporting, and stakeholder engagement, to ensure effective implementation and compliance. The implementation framework involves continuous institutional coordination, periodic reporting, and stakeholder involvement, with activities scheduled from 2025 through 2028. It underscores the importance of procedural clarity, data collection, and public awareness efforts, aiming to embed gender mainstreaming into national policy processes and ensure adherence to international obligations, thereby fostering a comprehensive approach to gender equality at the national level.
