Abstract/Citation
South Africa's National Policy Framework for Women's Empowerment and Gender Equality (the Gender Policy Framework) reflects South Africa¿s vision for gender equality and how it intends to realize this ideal. The policy stipulates the overarching principles, practices and programs which will be integrated by all sectors of the South African government into their policies. This gender policy also details a strategy for gender mainstreaming and provides guiding principles for its implementation. Most importantly the policy details the long and short term mechanisms for determining the extent of gender justice and equality.
