Abstract:
Gender mainstreaming – the incorporation of a gender perspective in all policies at all levels and at all stages – has been on the agenda of aid agencies and NGOs since the Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing in 1995. As the results of gender mainstreaming seemed disappointing, the On Track with Gender Trajectory was initiated in 2008 to rethink and transform the current understanding and practice of gender mainstreaming. In 2010 the first policy brief on Gender Mainstreaming was published. This second policy brief aims to deepen our understanding and provide new insights in order to bring gender mainstreaming to the next level.
