As part of its efforts towards fostering gender equality and women’s empowerment in public policies and government budgets, the Ministry of Human Services and Social Security has joined forces with key ministries to examine the comprehensive integration of gender matters.
The aim of this collaborative approach is to ensure that gender perspectives are at the forefront of policy development, implementation, and evaluation, with an emphasis on addressing gender disparities and promoting gender equity.
As such, a landmark three-day conference which commenced yesterday, is being held at the Marriott Hotel ballroom in Kingston, Georgetown, under the theme, “Shared Experiences Towards Developing Robust National and Regional Models for the 2030 SDG Agenda”. There, government officials, regional delegates and advocates have come together to discuss and strategise ways and share experiences on advancing gender equality in line with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
