The IWWAGE Policies and Programmes for Women and Girls in India series presents a mapping of the policies and programmes that exist at the state level and are targeted at women and girls, and indicate the state’s intention of addressing one or more key outcomes to advance gender equality. Through this series IWWAGE, aims to consolidate the information, and highlight evidence on the effectiveness of policies and programmes meant to do so, but also identify gaps where no such rigorous evidence exists.
