Gender Mainstreaming in Aarhus Activities – a Guideline for Practitioners

The purpose of the Manual is to assist Aarhus Centre staff and Aarhus stakeholders to effectively integrate a gender perspective into their work. The Manual suggests concrete and practical entry points for integrating a gender perspective into activities related to all three pillars of the Aarhus Convention (access to information, public participation and access to justice), as well as in support of OSCE gender equality principles. These guidelines can be used to effectively promote gender equality in the environmental sector, assisting stakeholders to realize national and international commitments on gender equality and strengthen good governance overall. The OSCE Mission to Serbia supported translation of this Manual into Serbian and its printing.
