The generally accepted definition of Gender Budgeting emerges from the report of the special group of the Council of Europe, which in 2005 reached the conclusion that: “Gender Budgeting is the implementation of Gender Mainstreaming in the budgetary process. This means the valorisation of budgets from the viewpoint of gender, in which case the gender question is taken into account at all levels of the budgetary process with the aim of promoting the equality of women and men.” The same definition is then also used in the framework of the European Union.
