The document is produced within the consultation process of the IPA 2 Mechanism for Civil Society Organizations, by Sector 6 – Employment, Education and Social Policy in cooperation with the Gender Equality Platform.
We welcome the treatment of gender equality as one of the key strategic priorities and a horizontal issue that needs to be addressed in all sectors.

Upon making certain consultations, the Platform for Gender Equality hereby proposes in this document the following recommendations for improvement.
