The Gender Equality Seal for public institutions is a global initiative that celebrates public institutions and governments striving to be more inclusive and working to create societies where women and men have equal opportunities. This involves integrating gender concerns across all aspects of their work and delivering public policies and services for all. As public institutions embark on a journey towards gender equality excellence, the Gender Equality Seal measures their progress against internationally validated standards. It also supports them every step of the way, offering innovative tools and tailored guidance. We work with national, regional and local public institutions and our services are available in several languages. Upon completion of the programme, a participating institution will be recognized internationally with a Gold, Silver, or Bronze Seal demonstrating its progress towards gender equality. It will also be seen as a dynamic and enterprising organization that values equality. For more information see: https://www.gendersealpublicinstitutions.org/
