Gender Budgeting- an Economic Initiative for Women Empowerment

Abstract

There is no denial of the fact that in spite of all the progress that had taken place during the 21st century, women continued to remain a marginalized section in many parts of the globe. It was only recently that there was a paradigm shift to strengthen the actions and outcome to achieve the desired goal of gender equity. The greatest effort in this context is that of the introduction of Gender Budgeting as a means of linking the social with the economic within an overall policy framework. So far the government is able to allocate only a small portion of the overall budget outlay towards various women specific programmes, a ray of hope is there for doing something better in future.
