Gender Budgeting is part of Gender Mainstreaming strategies which aim at unveiling gender aspects and gender realities in all kinds of policies and measures. Gender Budgeting is a tool by which women and men be considered equally when allocating budgets and determining taxes, i.e. when desiging parcs, buildings, etc.
