March 9, 2015 - This paper, produced by
the Gender and Development Network (GADN) Gender Mainstreaming Working Group,
explores the concept and practicalities of gender mainstreaming. It draws on
learning from staff with responsibility for gender mainstreaming in nine UK
based international Non Governmental Organisations (INGOs) and their Southern
based partner organisations; wider discussions with GADN members and women’s
rights activists; as well as the personal experiences and reflections of the
authors. It elaborates a Theory of Change setting out the component parts of
gender mainstreaming, how these relate to each other, and how they collectively
contribute towards the wider goal of gender equality and women’s and girls’
rights.
