The German Development Cooperation project is supporting the Ministry of Human, Minority Rights and Social Dialogue in conducting Campaign “Improve Gender Equality”. The aim of the campaign is to increase the number of reports on the achievement of gender equality that legal entities are obliged to submit annually. The concept of the campaign included organizing five informative events throughout Serbia in which experts provided inputs and guidelines to the representatives of the legal entities on reporting in accordance with the Law on Gender Equality. Also, Guidelines for the enforcement of the Law on Gender Equality have been prepared and published. Further on, as a part of the campaign, an informative video was filmed and was broadcast nationwide on TV stations. The software for automatic data processing in the field of gender equality, including a web application for entering data classified by gender and reporting and monitoring the implementation of the Law on Gender Equality, was developed and tested.
The software and web application are fully tailored to the needs of users (i.e. public authorities and employers, political parties and trade union organizations, as well as gender equality bodies at all levels of government) and the Ministry (as the web application administrator) will ease and enhance the process of collecting and processing of relevant data. Based on the examples and lessons learned in the testing period, set of trainings for employees in the public sector at the national, provincial and local level, where they can learn, practice and clarify any doubts are underway.
