The OECD Development Centre, in partnership with the African Development Bank Group and the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa, invites you to a virtual high-level policy dialogue on gender equality in Southern Africa on 15 September 2021 at 2:00 PM South Africa Time for an interactive policy discussion.    

Building on the previous two workshops organised on 26 May and 2 June, gathering grassroots organisations and policy makers, respectively, the high-level policy dialogue will present a roadmap based on the previously identified policy options and aim to reach a consensus for implementing it in view of addressing gender-based discrimination in social institutions and accelerating progress on gender equality in the region.   

This policy dialogue is part of a series of virtual policy dialogues events in Africa within the OECD Development Centre project, “From data to policy action: addressing social institutions governing women’s and men’s behaviour to enhance gender equality in Africa”, supported by the Austrian Development Cooperation.
