Throughout the world, women, girls and marginalised groups continue to be victims of inequality and discrimination. Mainstreaming the gender and inclusion dimensions is a transversal priority in all our projects.
We adopt a three-pronged approach to ensure that our programmes take full account of gender, equity and inclusion issues.
- The two-track approach: Gender equality is systematically integrated into all our projects. We also have specific actions and projects dedicated to gender equality, including transformative education projects for girls and projects to combat violence against women.
- Gender transformative approach: We intervene at the individual, interpersonal, community, institutional as well as legislative levels of influence and seek to act, in particular, on the structural causes of gender inequality, including inequitable power relations and discriminatory norms.
- The intersectional approach: Gender inequality must not be seen in isolation. It intersects with other factors of inequality and discrimination such as age, ethnic origin, social class and disability. We ensure that our actions meet the specific needs of the most vulnerable populations and contribute to social and economic justice.
