Abstract:
This policy brief highlights the challenges faced by GFPs based on a situational analysis that includes a desktop review, stakeholder consultative dialogues, and key informant interviews conducted by the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) as part of groundwork aimed at framing and developing a gender mainstreaming strategy. The policy brief further outlines the policy implications for strengthening gender mainstreaming in the public sector in South Africa, with a focus on the role of GFPs.
