Gender Equality

Advancing Gender Equality and Women's Empowerment Across East Africa

About This Sector

We support the implementation of the EAC Gender Policy across all Partner States, working to mainstream gender in regional integration processes and ensure women's full participation in economic, social, and political life.

The Challenge

Despite policy commitments, gender inequalities persist across the region. Women face barriers to economic participation, political representation, and access to services. Gender-based violence remains prevalent, and gender-responsive budgeting is limited.
