Gender budgeting is an approach to public finance management that aims to advance gender equality by analyzing how government budgets impact women and men differently. The purpose of gender budgeting is to ensure that public resources are allocated in a way that promotes gender equality, and that policies and programs are designed and implemented in a way that addresses the specific needs, interests, and priorities of women and men. Gender budgeting involves integrating gender perspectives into all stages of the budget process, including planning, formulation, implementation, and evaluation. By systematically analyzing the gender impact of government budgets, gender budgeting aims to identify and address gender inequalities and promote more equitable distribution of resources for the benefit of all.
