In this case, the gender institution’s leadership, along with a sector-specific approach to gender mainstreaming, improved its capacity to influence inter-sectoral dialogue with line ministries and the national gender institution advocated successfully for legislation on domestic violence and gender discrimination, including childcare for seasonal day workers and maternity leave for domestic employees (OECD, 2014). The Beijing Platform of Action of 1995 indicates that responsibility for the advancement of women should be vested in the highest possible level of government, if possible at the level of a Cabinet minister, so as to ensure sufficient authority to advance a government-wide approach to gender equality. If gender considerations are not integrated into the activities of all gender institutions, gender equality efforts risk being marginalised.
