Mission Statement - Budgeting for Gender Equity

|
Vide
letter no. PC/SW/1-3(13)/09-WCD, dated, 5th January, 2010,
Planning Commission, Government of India, has stated that, "the
concepts of Women Component Plan and Gender Budgeting are not
complementary but often contradictory and the world over
countries have moved to using Gender Responsive Budgeting as a
tool for gender mainstreaming and ensuring gender equity" and
has clarified that, "Women Component
Plan should no longer be used as a strategy either at the Centre
or at the State level. In its place as already initiated by the
Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Women and Child Development,
we should adopt Gender Responsive Budgeting or Gender Budgeting
only".

' In order to
institutionalize Gender Budgeting and sensitize officials of
Ministries, Government Departments and PSUs, it has been decided with
the approval of the competent authority that proposals from NGOs
(including those recevied from NGOs till date) will not be considered
under the Gender Budgeting Scheme, at this stag. Any further change in
the decision will be posted on this website.' |
