Descripción
In general, this strategy will contribute to the achievement of changes that will contribute to the realisation of equality and equity between women and men, in accordance with the objectives of the national gender equality policies and strategies. The strategy aligns with continental and global codes, agreements and conventions and the countries of the Canary Current Marine system project adhered to continental and global agreements, conventions and United Nations Conferences. They have ratified several treaties and conventions (Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women [CEDAW, 1985]), the Optional Protocol to CEDAW (in 2000), the Protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights (ACHPR) (in 2004) and to the Sustainable Development Goals.The vision and objectives of this gender strategy can only be achieved if there is a clear political and institutional commitment that is both practical and ambitious. This is expressed in the setting of institutional arrangements, implementing principles such as collection of sex disaggregated data, undertake gender analysis and integrate gender actions in each theme, set clear priorities and explicit choice in favour of using and supporting local and international gender expertise and mainstreaming gender in policy dialogue with participating countries and with key institutions and stakeholders.
