  Description

  This action is part of a series of actions in partnership with the Ministry of Labour and Employment Promotion (MTPE) of Peru, in the area of labour and employment. In this circumstance, the MTPE aimed to set-up multi-sectoral public policies aimed to boost women’s employment. Experts from France and Spain presented key concepts on gender equality, including international declarations, resolutions and commitments for women’s rights, and looked into the legal national framework and policies. They presented good practices of EU member states, and worked out a basic toolkit that help to mainstream gender issues in employment policies and programs.
