Title | How Is Vienna Gender Mainstreaming? |
Summary | This thesis analyzes local level policy implementation of gender mainstreaming by investigating into gender equality policies, programs and projects of Vienna City Hall. After a theoretical overview and a review of the existing literature that is often rather skeptical about this strategy, the thesis tries to define success criteria or “ingredients” for effective gender mainstreaming implementation on the local level. As Vienna City Hall’s gender equality policies, projects and programs have an international reputation as being “best practices,” the author performed field research in this municipality, conducting semi-structured interviews with key players related to this issue. Among the results of this research, one can read a detailed discussion of the Viennese “twin-track” strategy, and the “ideal” gender mainstreaming implementation pattern. |
