Build consensus around alternative economic policies - GADN’s Feminist Reframing of Macro-level Economics (REFRAME) project.
“We are very grateful to GADN for generating awareness on macroeconomics and gender. GADN was a critical partner and influencer on Macroeconomic Policy and Women’s Economic Empowerment. GADN’s technical input strengthened policy discussions... and helped us arrive at a consensus on key priorities.”
- Anuradha Seth (Left) Policy Advisor Economic Empowerment, UN Women
GADN influenced the international agenda in 2017 by successfully pressuring the UN High Level Panel on Women’s Economic Empowerment to recognise that macro-level economic policies influence gender equality. A UN working group was established which produced a report specifically on these issues.
