This tool provides practical step-by-step guidance to parliaments at the EU, national and regional levels to develop, implement, monitor and evaluate a gender equality action plan.
The tool describes how to:
- plan the process of establishing a gender equality action plan from start to finish
- set up the necessary support structures and conditions that are required to success fully execute a gender equality action plan
- design the contents of a gender equality action plan, including the measures that parliaments can adopt
- recognise the key challenges they may encounter throughout the process, and potential solutions to prevent and address these concerns.
The tool supports parliaments in achieving gender-responsive institutional transformation. If you have assessed the gender-sensitivity of your parliament, develop a gender equality action plan as a next step towards achieving a gender-sensitive parliament.
