Apolitical is a peer-to-peer learning network for governments, connecting 100k+ public servants in over 170 countries to the latest and best ideas, skills and partners they need to solve today’s complex challenges. One of our key focus areas is gender equality. Based on our experience of working closely with public servants, we have found that even with the best political will, governments can fall short in making and/ or implementing programs and policies that will bring about transformational change toward gender equality.
