No RPS135762, ADB Reports from Asian Development Bank (ADB)

Abstract: The operational plan sets out the strategic directions and the guiding framework to advance the gender equality agenda and deliver better gender equality outcomes in Asia and the Pacific by 2020. Under the new gender operational plan, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) will intensify its efforts to ensure that gender equality remains at the front and center of its development agenda, and to accelerate progress in closing remaining gender gaps. The operational plan will serve as the road map for translating Strategy 2020’s gender equity as driver of change into concrete and measurable operations to support gender equality outcomes. The outcome of the operational plan is improved gender equality results from ADB operations by 2020. It also reflects the directions set in ADB’s revised Corporate Results Framework of improving implementation to deliver better outcomes.
