Gender Vision Policy 2021-2035

This policy document points the way to eventually achieve gender equality and equity in Suriname in the chosen priority areas. Besides the abovementioned priority areas, the government will also identify sectoral development themes or priorities in national development plans in the coming years. By applying gender mainstreaming, policies can be checked in the national development sectors or priorities, thus ensuring that the chosen policy does not create or reinforce gender inequalities. Furthermore, gender analyses can indicate which interventions may help eliminate or lessen any gender inequalities that may be found.
Fecha

In gender mainstreaming, a comparative analysis of the situation of women and men is made first. Any inequalities between men and women are mapped and then one tries to limit or eliminate these by targeting them with interventions. The purpose of gender mainstreaming is to prevent policy being made which creates, preserves or reinforces inequalities between women and men. At the same time, interventions are planned to eliminate or lessen gender inequalities, should these be identified.
