| Summary: |
FES commissioned this particular Gender Briefing focusing on “Economy, Labor and Social Justice” as part of a broader set of thematic Gender Briefings. Building on previous and ongoing efforts around gender mainstreaming within the MENA regional and country offices it was felt that there is need for a focused review of gender relations in existing strategic objectives or thematic areas set by FES for the MENA region. There is also perceived need for a set of concrete recommendations for gender sensitive approaches and concrete tools that can be used for the strategic integration of gender justice into the planning of projects within the thematic are of “Economy, Labor and Social Justice”. This particular briefing is therefore concerned with briefly evaluating the work of FES MENA around the integration of gender equality objectives across its programmes and based on these findings, making clear and tangible recommendations on how FES MENA can move forward to ensuring its programmes in the area of “Economy, Labor and Social Justice” are truly addressing issues of gender justice.
