Uses

Gender Budgeting offers a number of advantages, some of which go beyond an effective contribution to gender equality between women and men:

GB creates greater transparency with regard to the criteria on which budget policy decisions are based.
GB makes greater accuracy of targeting and greater sustainability possible by means of exact tailoring of the utilization of funds to the actual requirements of the various social groups.
GB is a process that makes discriminatory effects of decisions with a financial impact visible and makes possible the shaping of decisions regarding resources to take due account of gender aspects.
GB is an opportunity for realising the goals of gender equality policy in periods as well where there is greater room to manoeuvre in budgetary policy.
