Gender Equality
At DP-360, we believe that gender equality is necessarily a human rights issue and crucial for holistic and sustainable development of a society. Gender equality must entail equitable say in and access to social issues, law and legal matters, religious issues, health, education, employment – including equal pay for equal work – and all aspects and walks of personal and professional life.
Our approach to interventions targeted at promoting Gender Equality:
DP-360 specializes in providing technical assistance to governments, political organizations and private institutions in establishing gender equality through the following interventions:
- Formulating and establishing legal provisions
- Conceptualizing and executing advocacy, awareness and communication
- Developing, institutionalizing and monitoring initiatives preventing female feticide
- Promoting economic empowerment of women
- Ensuring educational empowerment of women
- Establishing policies at workplace ensuring safe work environment for women
- Institutionalizing gender sensitive initiatives in refugee camps and displaced populations
- GBB (Gender Balanced Budgeting): providing special technical expertise to institutions (public and private) in ensuring GBB (as promoted by UNIFEM, 2001) through research, policy analysis, policy design advocacy, awareness, training and monitoring
