Gender and governance in China: turning the rhetoric into practice (90KB)

This brief by Hassall & Associates International (HAI) examines how the China Australia Governance Program funded by AusAID has worked to meet the challenge of turning the rhetoric on gender equity into effective practice.

Despite being a critical factor for development impact, translating gender concepts into operational reality remains a difficult task, particularly for a sector such as governance.

This brief is part of an ongoing series of knowledge briefs, 'Impact', published by HAI which aim to document and share ideas and experience on a range of development impact topics.
