Secure leadership and commit at the highest political level, at the appropriate level of government, to the development and implementation of a whole-of government strategy for effective gender equality and mainstreaming, which would enable:

• setting a rationale, action plans, priorities, timelines, objectives, expected outcomes and/or targets, and effective policy planning across public institutions for promoting gender equality. 
• engaging relevant governmental and non-governmental stakeholders; and
• adopting a dual approach to narrowing equality gaps through both gender mainstreaming and specific targeted actions.
