This paper showcases how a model that uses gender-responsive budgeting as a tool to promote gender equality, developed in the context of the Programme for Consolidating Economic Governance and PFMS in the PALOP-TL countries, Pro PALOP-TL SAI, leads to transformational and structural changes in PFMS and, consequently, results in more gender-equal economies and gender equality in the referenced countries (and could also be applied to other countries or at regional/global levels).
