As an established convenor of standards developing organisations, UNECE encourages the integration of a gender perspective, providing practical steps for organisations to advance women’s full and effective participation in standards and standards development. With the objective of strengthening knowledge and understanding of gender action plans, UNECE delivered a series of virtual capacity-building workshops which provided standards experts with the analytical framework to implement gender mainstreaming throughout their organisation. Since the opening of the UNECE Declaration for Gender-Responsive Standards and Standards Development in May 2019, more than 80 national, regional, and international standards development organisations have elected to become signatories; making a public commitment to ensure that the content and impact of standards when implemented are gender-responsive.
