A People-Centred Budget
Belgrade, 21 December – UN Women with the support of the German Development Cooperation (GIZ), launched an e-learning platform for gender responsive budgeting at local level, as a tool to improve gender equality.
According to Milana Rikanović, Head of the UN Women Office in Serbia, the Covid-19 pandemic crisis has not only transformed the way we live and work, but also widened existing gender inequalities.
“Gender responsive budgeting (GRB) is a key tool designed to help us achieve gender equality by taking into consideration the needs of everyone, women and men, girls and boys. This is the reason why we launched this e-learning platform, primarily to educate administrative staff at local government level to apply GRB as a tool to improve the quality of the everyday lives of Serbia’s citizens and eradicate inequalities, but it will also be made available to other interested parties,” stated Rikanović.
This e-platform, called “People-Centred Budget” (Ljudi u centru budžeta – ROB (peo..

A House in Dedinje
Diplomats move house more than most people. We move between countries every two, three or four years. We move backwards and forwards to and from our own countries. Even within our home countries jobs in our foreign ministries may be spread across more than one city.
I have lived in six countries outside the UK. Some of my colleagues will have lived and worked in even more.
Some countries expect their diplomats to take their own furniture with them as they move around the world. British diplomats don’t do this – and haven’t done so for very many years. That makes it easier when it comes to moving. But it also means you spend most of your working life living with furniture and furnishings, and in houses, that aren’t your own.
(It also means that when you walk into a British diplomat’s house or flat anywhere in the world you are quite likely to reco..
