This publication draws from the experience and expertise of Equality Bodies in relation to equality planning as an approach within equality mainstreaming systems. It sets out case studies of equality planning in six Equality Bodies to:
- establish and increase awareness of the potential in equality planning;
- inform the work of Equality Bodies in supporting equality planning within public and private institutions;
- inform the work of public authorities and private actors in implementing equality planning; and
- inform the work of European level and national level authorities in creating the legal and policy conditions for effective equality planning.
