“…A principal aim of GB has been to integrate gender analysis into macroeconomic policy, government spending, and revenue proposals with a view of ensuring they promote gender equality (Elson, 2002;Himmelweit, 2002). This analysis often relies on a specific kind of feminist knowledge-feminist economics-which challenges mainstream understandings of the economy which exclude or devalue unpaid economy and the provision of care (Çağlar, 2013;O'Hagan, 2018). However, GB has another aim: to politicize macroeconomic policies and the budget by showing that the budget is not a technical exercise but a political tool because it is the principal expression of government priorities (O'Hagan, 2018).…”

Finland has been using gender budgets (GB) for over 10 years; however, very little is known internationally about the Finnish GB experience. Finland's experience provides several lessons for GB practitioners in other countries. It highlights the importance of clear national gender equality goals for effective GB implementation, as well as the need to pay attention to mid-term fiscal frameworks. It also shows how the lack of feminist economic expertise and a clear conceptual framework can reduce GB to technical processes and calculations, and the importance of outside-government actors drawing attention to the gendered impacts of economic policies.

“…GRB refers to a systemic approach that involves various instruments, techniques, and procedures to integrate the gender perspective into the overall budget process-from planning to reporting [5,11,49]. Since the mid-1980s, GRB has gained increasing relevance in multiple contexts and in public sector organizations [50], including at HEIs [3,51]. GRB is rooted in gender mainstreaming, understood as a strategy for promoting equal opportunity and disseminating the gender perspective in political choices by rethinking traditional decision-making processes.…”

The Journey to Gender-Responsive Budgeting: Lessons Learned from Higher Education

2021

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Agenda includes gender equality as one of its 17 goals and emphasizes the importance of supporting women’s empowerment to meet the SDGs. Gender-responsive budgeting (GRB) can help achieve gender equality in organizations, but there continue to be limitations on exploiting its full potential. Further research is needed, especially in the public sector and at higher education institutions. This paper investigates the development of the GRB process and the related reporting practices, as well as the potential to fully integrate it into the university’s strategic policies at the University of Ferrara. The paper is based on a qualitative content analysis of annual GRB reports from 2011 to 2018. The results show that, during this period, GRB at the university changed from playing an accountability role to having a performance measurement role. Although GRB has become more relevant inside the organization, the extent of the integration with the university strategy and the budgeting cycle remains limited, which hampers the strategic relevance of GRB.

Kamusal kaynak tahsisi ve yeniden dağıtım sürecinde, hayatın çoğu alanında sosyoekonomik olarak dezavantajlı olan ve cinsiyet, cinsel kimlik, din, ırk, etnik köken, engellilik ve benzerleri nedeniyle kesişimsel ayrımcılığa maruz kalanların durumunun dikkate alınması, eşitsizliklerin azaltılması bakımından kritik öneme sahiptir. Kamu harcamalarının tahsis edilmesi ve kamusal hizmet sunumunun gerçekleştirilmesi sürecinde farklı toplumsal cinsiyetlerin ihtiyaç ve önceliklerinin gözetilmesi amacıyla geliştirilen Toplumsal Cinsiyete Duyarlı Bütçeleme (TCDB) aynı zamanda kesişimsel cinsiyet ayrımcılıklarının ortadan kaldırılmasını hedeflemektedir. Bu çalışmada, Türkiye'de TCDB girişimlerinin sınırlı örneklerinden olan Tekirdağ Büyükşehir Belediyesi ile Urla Belediyesi'nde gerçekleştirilen proje ve faaliyet bazlı TCDB uygulaması ele alınmıştır. Her iki uygulama da geliştirilmesi gereken yanlar olmakla birlikte, ulusal ya da uluslararası herhangi bir kurumun desteği olmadan TCDB yaklaşımı temelinde ilgili tablolarının bütçe paketi içine eklenmesi açısından Türkiye'deki öncü örnekler arasındadır. Bu uygulamaların yerel siyasi aktörler ve sivil toplum tarafından sahiplenilmesi, toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliği politikalarının daha sürdürülebilir bir yapıda olmasına katkı sağlayacaktır.
