Gender Equality Tools
UNESCO has many guidelines and tools to support gender equality work. We welcome you to visit the UNESCO guidelines for gender equality links below to help mainstream gender into your work and projects.
Gender Mainstreaming is a process rather than a goal. Efforts to integrate gender into existing institutions of the mainstream have little value for their own sake. We mainstream gender concerns to achieve gender equality and improve the relevance of development agendas.
The tools below provide practical guidance and useful definitions that serve as a basis for effective mainstreaming of gender equality for any government staff or individual working in civil society organizations.
