Gender analysis of Mindanao

30.09.2021

The European Union Delegation to the Philippines is supporting peace building and economic and rural development in Mindanao through bilateral programmes and CSO projects. The Delegation has commissioned a gender analysis of Mindanao covering its policy framework, political setting, conflict and peace process, overall economic situation, socioeconomic situation, socio-cultural context and implications of climate change and natural disasters. The analysis will help ensure that the European Union Delegation programmes and interventions adopt a gender lens and tackle gender inequalities and discrimination where needed. It also provides a reach source of information and recommendations for any stakeholder who is engaged in Mindanao. Finally, it can serve as a source for policy and political discussions and debates on how to enhance gender equality in Mindanao.
