This assignment conducted a gender analysis and develop a resulting action plan with indicators of achievement and gender baseline information for the Benguela Current Convention (BCC). This has enabled the monitoring and reporting of organisational progress in promoting gender equality in BCC operations going forward. The findings from the gender analysis were also used to develop a gender policy for the BCC to guide gender mainstreaming in their governance and to promote gender equality in the BCC large marine environment programme (BCLME III).

The gender policy has been published and is available from the BCC.
