ASCANIO SANCHEZ, Carmen. Governance and Gender Responsive Budgeting: Studies and Experiences in Africa. Estud. Asia Áfr. [online]. 2018, vol.53, n.1, pp.93-117. ISSN 2448-654X.  https://doi.org/10.24201/eaa.v0i0.2295.

In recent decades, much research has been conducted on the topic of gender-sensitive budgeting, giving rise to a substantial body of both theoretical and empirical work. This paper analyzes a range of such projects carried out in six different African countries, which are of particular interest given their direct link to priority areas and plans for national development, and the fact that they have been spearheaded by international development agencies and bodies and conducted with the assistance of a range of social partners. We examine the relevance of a gender-based perspective and of the comprehensive and comparative approach it embodies, as well as presenting the results of comparative work in the African context and the main recommendations which come out of it.
