UNIFEM announced the launch of a new version of the Gender-Responsive Budgeting (GRB) web portal.
The website has been upgraded to respond to feedback received by UNIFEM from users and partners over the past few years, with the hope that it continues to be a comprehensive and useful resource centre on gender-responsive budgeting.
Adjustments to the website include:
Provision of easily accessible, searchable and up-to-date resources on GRB.
Reorganization of the website into categories and sections that are more user-friendly.
Creation of a section entitled "Issues" that provides resources on GRB in relation to specific issues, such as rights-based budgeting, aid effectiveness, reproductive health, HIV/AIDs, among others.
Creation of sections for resources in Arabic, French, and Spanish.
Migration of the site from its previous location under the website of the International Development and Research Centre (IDRC) in Canada to this current independent location: http://www.gender-budgets.org/
UNIFEM would like to invite all interested organizations and individuals to contribute to the contents of this website by sending us resources for posting. We also welcome your feedback and welcome any interest in building partnerships with national, regional and international organizations to strengthen this website and the work on gender-responsive budgeting at large.
