AID IN SUPPORT OF GENDER EQUALITY AND WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT The following tables and charts (2004-2005) summarize statistics on aid focused on gender equality and women’s empowerment extended by each DAC member. Information shown includes the gender equality policy marker coverage, the top ten recipients and a sector breakdown of aid focused on gender equality and women’s empowerment. Charts are not shown for countries which do not report on the gender equality policy marker, or for which the marker coverage over 2004-2005 is too low [France, Ireland, Luxembourg, Spain, Switzerland, United States] or for which the gender equality marker reporting is problematic [Italy]. Guidance for the interpretation of the charts: The first element to take into account when analyzing the data for one country or when comparing data between countries is the COVERAGE RATIO, i.e. the proportion of aid which is screened. A high percentage of gender equality focused aid ALONE does not mean that aid is well aligned with the gender equality policy objective, such a conclusion would only be valid for a donor with 100% coverage. When comparing data between donors, both cover- age ratio and % of aid focused on gender equality and women’s empowerment have to be considered. (A number of members do not screen contributions that are by nature likely to fall under the “not targeted” category, e.g. imputed student costs. Therefore, a high amount in the category “not screened” generally increases the percentage of gender equality focused aid significantly.)

AID IN SUPPORT OF GENDER EQUALITY
AND WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT
AID IN SUPPORT OF GENDER EQUALITY AND WOMEN’S EMPOWERMENT
The following tables and charts (2004-2005) summarize statistics on aid focused on gender equality and women’s empowerment extended by each DAC member. Information shown includes the gender equality policy marker coverage, the top ten recipients and a sector breakdown of aid focused on gender equality and women’s empowerment.
Charts are not shown for countries which do not report on the gender equality policy marker, or for which the marker coverage over 2004-2005 is too low [France, Ireland, Luxembourg, Spain, Switzerland, United States] or for which the gender equality marker reporting is problematic [Italy]. Guidance for the interpretation of the charts: The first element to take into account when analyzing the data for one country or when comparing data between countries is the COVERAGE RATIO, i.e. the proportion of aid which is screened. A high percentage of gender equality focused aid ALONE does not mean that aid is well aligned with the gender equality policy objective, such a conclusion would only be valid for a donor with 100% coverage. When comparing data between donors, both cover-age ratio and % of aid focused on gender equality and women’s empowerment have to be considered. (A number of members do not screen contributions that are by nature likely to fall under the “not targeted” category, e.g. imputed student costs. Therefore, a high amount in the category “not screened” generally increases the percentage of gender equality focused aid significantly.)
June 2007
Statistics based on DAC Members’ reporting on the Gender Equality Policy Marker, 2004 - 2005
An activity should be classified as gender equality focused (score Principal or Significant) if:
It is intended to advance gender equality and women’s empowerment or reduce discrimination and inequalities based on sex.
CRITERIA FOR ELIGIBILITY Gender equality is explicitly promoted in activity documentation through specific measures which:
a) Reduce social, economic or political power inequalities between women and men, girls and boys, ensure that women benefit equally with men from the activity, or compensate for past discrimination; or
b) Develop or strengthen gender equality or anti-discrimination policies, legislation or institutions.
This approach requires analysing gender inequalities either separately or as an integral part of agencies’ standard procedures.
EXAMPLES OF TYPICAL ACTIVITIES
Examples of activities that could be marked as principal objective:
-- legal literacy for women and girls; -- male networks against gender violence; -- a social safety net project which focuses specifically on assisting women and girls as a particularly disadvantaged group in a society; -- capacity building of Ministries of Finance and Planning to incorporate gender equality objectives in national poverty reduction or comparable strategies.
Such activities can target women specifically, men specifically or both women and men. Examples of activities that could be marked as significant objective:
-- activity which has as its principal objective to provide drinking water to a district or community while at the same time ensuring that women and girls have safe and easy access to the facilities; -- a social safety net project which focuses on the community as a whole and ensures that women and girls benefit equally with men and boys.
N.B. Support to women’s equality organisations and institutions (CRS sector code 15164) scores, by definition, principal objective.
