Gender Budget Analysis-Examining the Budget of Cheong-ju City

At the Beijing Women‘s World Conference in 1995, reaching the agreement that the state of driving forward should be evaluated, the importance of policy analysis on gender-perspective has been emerging as an issue. This is an approach of 'Gender and Development(GAD)' and led to a chance of the solution of the women problem by mainstreaming women. Gender-mainstream means that gender-perspective is unified to all processes to reach gender-equality. and gender budget analysis applies this gender-perspective to the analysis of government revenue and expenditure. It is basically supposed that the public policy has an influence on men and women differently. Therefore, a gender budget analysis not only examines the budget allocated for women but also makes all budget the subject of analysis. A gender budget analysis can be carried into effect in various governments. In this paper, the gender budget analysis on Cheong-ju city is attempted. This research depends, by and large, upon qualitative analysis rather than quantitative analysis. This is not only because the quantitative data is not available but also because it is difficult that the concept of 'gender' should be included in the analysis. This study is the first step to gender budget study which is to analyze the effect on women's lives.
