<p>Hi, this is Subhalakshmi Nandi from UN Women.</p>
<p>In India, we worked with the Ministry of Rural Development (MoRD) to develop Gender Audit guidelines, that you might find useful. You can find more details here: <a href="http://drd.nic.in/drd/downloads/programmes-schemes/Gender_Audit.pdf" target="_blank">http://drd.nic.in/drd/downloads/programmes-schemes/Gender_Audit.pdf</a>. This encompasses institutional as well as programmtic aspects for audit. It provides guidelines for gender mainstreaming across the various stages of planning and design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation.</p>
<p>UN Women in India helped the MoRD to develop these gender audit guidelines and is now working to support government in the implementation of these guidelines, at national and sub-national levels to meet its vision and commitment to gender equality. </p>
<p>One successful example of programmtic audit in India is under the Mahatma Gandhi Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) which legislates for conducting social audit of the programme. In the social audit of the programme, which is done post-facto, programme participants are also involved in reviewing the programme. More here: <a href="http://nrega.nic.in/netnrega/home.aspx" target="_blank">http://nrega.nic.in/netnrega/home.aspx</a>.</p>
<p>The Ministry of Women and Child Development (MWCD) in India has also developed a Handbook for Gender Budgeting, which is another useful resource for work on gender audits (UN Women contributed to this as well): <a href="http://wcd.nic.in/sites/default/files/GB%20-%20Handbook%20October%202015.pdf" target="_blank">http://wcd.nic.in/sites/default/files/GB%20-%20Handbook%20October%202015.pdf</a>.</p>
