Gender and development advocacy is an integral component of the development of any modern society. Gender responsive good governance may be achieved only through transparency, participatory, equitable and gender-responsive policies.

Gender mainstreaming of the plans and programs of each department is necessary to facilitate the creation of equal growth opportunities for all men and women in the government corporate workforce. An assurance that men and women receive equal pay and treatment for equal work and on ensuring the protection of the rights of women is critical to national development.
