Summary

Provided as the final document in a four-document series, this toolkit for the Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) Implementation serves as a supporting document to the ARA GESI Strategy and Strategic Action Plan (GESISAP). The toolkit is intended to be used both in tandem with the earlier ARA documents and as a stand-alone document that benefits the ARA membership.

The purpose of this toolkit is to serve as a guide to integrating gender equality and mainstreaming (GEM) into the operations and activities of the ARA and its membership. It supports the Gender Equality and Social Inclusion Strategy and Action Plan (GESISAP).

While this toolkit can stand alone in guiding actions to integrate GESI into the operations and work of the ARA and its membership organisations, it also supports the GESISAP in actions to effectively integrate gender equality into the organisation’s functioning. It helps ensure that organisations applying for membership, and ultimately for the role of host of the ARA, are addressing gender equality as both a cross-cutting theme and a desired impact of their work.
