Gender
The Bank must make a greater contribution to gender opportunity and equity as a basic guiding principle for all of its operations. It will intensify its mainstreaming of gender issues into the full range of its operational work, including through more effective implementation of the Gender Action Plan.
Specific gender guidelines for operational work will be designed, and disseminated to all operations staff, with appropriate training provided. The newly created unit dedicated to gender is expected to make clear commitments and key contributions to raising the profile of gender issues and their integration into operational planning and design. Gender issues will be more fully embedded across the organization through adoption of global best practises, and improved incentives and recognition.
