Gender Audit


The principle of gender equality is enshrined in Indian constitution in preamble, fundamental rights, fundamental duties and directive principles. Gender equality is the state of equal access to resources and opportunities regardless of gender, including economic participation and decision-making; and the state of valuing different behaviours, aspirations and needs equally, regardless of gender. The UNICEF (2017) says gender equality “means that women and men, and girls and boys, enjoy the same rights, resources, opportunities and protections. It does not require that girls and boys, or women and men, be the same, or that they be treated exactly alike.” Gender equality, equality between men, women and transgender does not mean that they have to become the same, but that their rights, responsibilities and opportunities will not depend on whether they were born male or female. Gender equity means fairness of treatment to all genders according to their respective needs.

A Gender Audit is an assessment process by which the gender equality state-of-art at an organization is analysed and the main gender biases are identified. Broadly, the concept of gender audit is defined as a tool to assess and check the institutionalisation of gender equality into organisations, including in their policies, programmes, projects and/or provision of services, structures, proceedings and budgets.
