WHAT IS GRB?

"Gender responsive budgeting (GRB) is about ensuring that government budgets and the policies and programs that underlie them address the needs and interests of individuals that belong to different social groups. Thus, GRB looks at biases that can arise because a person is male or female, but at the same time considers disadvantage suffered as a result of ethnicity, caste, class or poverty status, location and age. GRB is not about separate budgets for women or men nor about budgets divided equally. It is about determining where the needs of men and women are the same, and where they differ. Where the needs are different, allocations should be different."

Debbie Budlender 2006

This can be achieved through women's participation in budget policymaking and gender budget analysis.

This video presents show how this is working in practice in a GRB initiative supported by UNIFEM in Mysore, India.

Budgétisation sensible au genre et Droits des Femmes à la santé en matière de reproduction

UNFPA, UNIFEM 2006

Le Guide Pratique sur la Budgétisation Sensible au Genre et les Droits des Femmes en matière de Reproduction a été établi sous le Partenariat Stratégique de l’UNFPA/UNIFEM qui vise à développer une approche coordonnée pour une assistance technique efficace en matière de Budgétisation Sensible au Genre (BSG).

Ce partenariat est destiné à développer la capacité des équipes d’appui technique de l’UNFPA (EAT) à assister les partenaires locaux dans l’utilisation de la BSG. Ce partenariat est largement basé sur l’expérience de l’UNIFEM en matière de soutien des initiatives pour la BSG dans plus de vingt pays depuis 2000.
