Resumen
Descripción
The Middle East and North Africa (MENA)
region is experiencing a time of momentous change. Some
countries are in the midst of a profound political,
economic, and demographic transition, others are striving to
emerge from protracted conflict, yet others are experiencing
internal tensions and rising demands for more citizen voice.
This period of change and uncertainty presents challenges
and opportunities, including with regard to gender issues.
Yet some governments may not prioritize gender issues, while
in others there could be a regression. MENA Regional Gender
Action Plan (RGAP) is part of the World Bank's
institutional commitment to operationalize the policy
priorities identified in the WDR 2012 and the regional
companion to the World Development Report (WDR) 2012. The
MENA Regional Gender Action Plan (RGAP) will require that
the Bank be nimble and practical in its approach to
advancing gender equality in the region. The MENA RGAP
provides a two-pronged approach to supporting MENA countries
in advancing gender equality: Prong 1: through country
programs; and Prong 2: championing dialogue.
