Title:  Mapping Aid Effectiveness and Gender Equality in the Commonwealth of Independent States. Regional Issues and Trends. Final Report

Author: Sagipa Djusaeva

This report provides an overview of the issues and trends that emerged from mapping studies on aid effectiveness, gender equality and women's empowerment in Kyrgyzstan and Ukraine. The mapping studies revealed that strengthening the strategic planning capacities of government institutions and the policy-budget links is a priority in the context of these countries, where the implementation of the Paris Declaration principles is being hampered by poor systems and procedures coupled with weak capacity among civil servants. The mapping studies paint a clear picture of the deterioration of gender equality standards in both countries. Specifically, the differential effects of national budgets on specific groups of men and women are ignored and gender aspects do not figure in budget revenue or expenditure components. The studies were carried out within the context of the EC/UN Partnership on Gender Equality for Development and Peace.
