Gender Justice
A gender transformative approach
A gender transformative approach informs all policy discussions and ILC activities, committing ILC to “overcome any practices in its operations or those of its members that perpetuate the marginalisation of any section of society, and in particular of women.” While also respecting the diversity of our members. In order to do so, ILC launched its first Gender Audit in 2017 (available below.)
Promoting Gender Justice is more than an exercise to tick-a-box, and indispensable in our efforts to achieve all our joint 10 commitments to people-centred governance.
ILC members use various strategies to promote gender balance, ensuring women's participation in decisions about land and natural resource governance.
What does this mean in practice?
