Step 2: Develop and adopt a gender equality action plan
After assessing the level of gender-sensitivity and identifying the gender inequalities that exist within your institution, develop and adopt a gender equality plan that is tailored to your parliament’s unique needs and context.
In this step, high-level working groups or committees will do the following.
-
Propose actionable measures to address gender and intersecting inequalities that were identified during the gender equality assessment.
-
Establish a clear roadmap that will guide the process of implementation, monitoring and evaluation.
-
Garner feedback on the plan’s proposed measures through consultation activities with different groups in the institution.
-
Formally adopt the plan with the endorsement of leadership and communicate its aims to members of the institution.
