Gender-Responsive Budgeting: Mysore, India
This video showcases UN Women’s work on gender-responsive budgeting (GRB). The film is set in Mysore, India, where an elected woman representative used the skills gained from a UN Women-supported GRB training to facilitate dialogue between women and municipal government and mobilize women to articulate their priorities and demand action from local leaders. As a result, budget allocations were secured for the construction of a health centre and the removal of a health hazard from the community.

Gender-Responsive Budgeting: Morocco
Gender-responsive budgeting is a crucial tool for women’s empowerment. In Morocco, UN Women has worked with the government to create a more tailored approach in which budgeting can have a more effective and immediate impact. As this documentary illustrates, when the needs of women living in a particular geographical and cultural context are addressed, the entire community benefits. In the past four years, the Finance Ministry of Morocco has made substantial progress in developing both gender-responsive and results-oriented budgetary reform. (Year of Release: 2008)
