As part of two-person team, DIG Consultants Inc. produced an Action Kit for UN Women on Gender-responsive Budgeting (GRB). The Kit was primarily focused on UN Women staff, but will be of value to all those promoting annual state budget processes that include broad gender analysis.

“This action kit is a practical tool for unpacking gender responsive budgeting (GRB) and engaging parliaments and parliamentarians in strengthening scrutiny and oversight of gender responsive budget formulation, execution, and evaluation. As a result of their interventions, the budget process can be more participatory, inclusive, and effective.

This publication is directed primarily to actors who want to build an effective system for integrating GRB into the annual state budget process. This includes include Members of Parliament (MPs), parliamentary staff and committees, caucuses of women MPs, as well as other actors, including UN Women or other United Nations entities who may want to initiate and support a stronger role for parliament and MPs in GRB.”
