EU Donors under Women’s Watch
WIDE Checks
up on Gender Equality and Women’s Rights in the Aid Effectiveness Agenda on the
Road to Busan, 2011
The report maps the degree to
which European Union donors from Austria, Netherlands, Poland, Spain and the UK
comply with the commitments they made in the Paris Declaration and the Accra
Agenda for Action, and the impact this has on gender equality and women´s human
rights.
The policy brief summarises the most
important findings of the mapping study based on women’s organisations’ voices
carried out by WIDE on EU donors’ compliance with their ownership and mutual
accountability commitments made in the Paris Declaration and Accra Agenda for
Action. WIDE has focused on the EU’s intentions and actions as donors based on
the example of five Member States: Austria,
Netherlands, Poland, Spain
and the UK.
The brief highlights how gender equality and women’s rights have been addressed
in the changing aid modalities context; it points out to the gaps, and suggests
ways for improvement.
