This training manual seeks to build understanding of gender-responsive budgeting (GRB) as a tool for promoting gender equity, accountability to women's rights and efficiency and transparency in budget policies and processes. It was produced under a UNFPA/UNIFEM strategic partnership aimed at developing a coordinated approach for effective technical assistance to gender-responsive budgeting (GRB).

The training manual includes the following:
- A focus on the applicability of gender-responsive budgeting to reproductive health
- A presentation of sector-specific examples
- Case studies dealing with maternal health, gender and HIV/AIDS, and violence against women.
