WIDE+, Care, DSW, EWL, IPPF European Network, One, Plan International, Save the Children and World Vision make the case for a gender-responsive EU planning and budgeting in the context of the preparation of the next EU Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) post-2020 in this: For a gender-responsive EU budget.
It recommends:
- Building capacity within the European Commission.
- Adopting a clear set of tools and indicators to monitor gender objectives in the new MFF and ensuring the collection of gender disaggregated data in all programmes.
- Conducting a gender impact assessment of the next MFF before its adoption.
- Establishing clear mechanisms and feedback loops in the MFF cycle to maximise its gender responsiveness.
