The Ministry of Women and Child Development is developing gender budgeting manuals to ensure that women related schemes receive adequate funds. The manuals will be designed to reinforce the practice of gender budgeting at all levels of governance.
The WCD Ministry is assessing the impact of gender budgeting by other Ministries. The WCD Minister, Renuka Chowdary, also plans to develop a sex disaggregated database; a Gender Development Index; and implement an intensive training and capacity building programme .
I wonder what the implications of this will be on my work in the realm of gender and trade–trade policy falls under the scope of gender budgeting!
