Guidelines for Gender and Development Budgeting in DepEd Orders
DepEd Order No. 63, s. 2012 outlines the guidelines for Gender and Development (GAD) budgeting in the education sector. It emphasizes the incorporation of Gender Analysis and Research in GAD plans, ensuring the equal addressing of women's and men's concerns. The GAD budget is an integral part of the agency budget, not an additional fund. Approved programs and projects arising from gender analysis determine the annual GAD budget. GAD PPAs are to be issue-based and grounded in sex-disaggregated data. This order highlights the importance of GAD in policy formulation and budget allocation.
