Summary: | This article examines the major gender budgeting initiatives instigated by national governments and considers their different institutional bases and design features and their compatibility with intersectional analyses. Can existing approaches adapt to also address multiple, concurrent, and intersecting inequalities and power imbalances related but not limited to race, class, gender identity, sexuality, ethnicity, First Nations and Indigenous personhood, disability, age, religion, language, region, and parental status? The author argues that more fundamental reconceptualizations of the budget process are needed because intersectionality is not just an ‘add-on’. Existing gender budgeting initiatives would also benefit from more qualitative, dynamic, and inclusive methods. A model for future intersectional budgeting is proposed. |
