COEs for gender mainstreaming in local government – concept note

This concept note concerns the cascading and strengthening at country level of pioneering work on Centres of Excellence (COE’s) on Gender Mainstreaming in Local Government carried out by Gender Links (GL) in partnership with local government associations in ten Southern African countries.

An important immediate focus of the concept note is the proposal that from 2012 the annual Gender Justice and Local Government Summit begin with country level summits to cater for the increasing response; broaden profile and participation at country level; increase competition and quality of entries; strengthen partnerships and ownership of the process.
