| dc.description.abstract | Most studies have shown that gender mainstreaming in
South Sudan has not been well undertaken this is due to lack of
working policy or lack of policy implementation. While
expansive body of literature has explored the implications of
gender disparities in South Sudan, none has been published on
the impact National Gender Policy full implementation. This
study aims at assessing the implementation of South Sudan
National Gender Policy in Jubek State, South Sudan. The study
was guided by three objectives namely; to identify the gender
gaps in the National gender Policy as a step towards achieving
gender equality in Jubek state in gender mainstreaming in Jubek
State; and to determine stakeholders’ achievement in a national
gender policy in Jubek State. The study employed a stand point
theory. A population of 350 government officials and members of
the public in the Jubek State targeted in the study with a
randomly selected sample of 105 respondents. Members of the
public responded to questionnaire while Government Officials to
respond to both interview guide questionnaire. The aim of the
study was to assess this strategies that help in the implementation
of Gender policy in all government Ministries. The study
employed descriptive and inferential analysis with the aid of
Statistical Package for the Social Sciences and data presented by
Charts and tables. The study further revealed that despite the
existence of South Sudan National Gender Policy its
implementation is still a not clear since the general public is not
even aware of its existence and there is no awareness to the
public on the importance of the South Sudan National Gender
Policy. The study further concluded that there is no emphasis
national gender policy in gender mainstreaming. Gender
responsive training and retraining programs have not been
established. There are also no adequate resources allocated for
gender mainstreaming. The government doesn’t increase
financial allocation for interventions to increase retention rates
for girls and boys in schools. Thus the national gender policy in
gender mainstreaming has not produced any success. The study
findings further revealed that stakeholders in national gender
policy have not achieved a lot. The study recommends that, there
is need for the government state ministries to establish more
strict measures to ensure there is gender equity in employment in
both private and public service. There is also need for the
government stakeholders to create awareness to the public on the
importance and implementation of Sudan National Gender
Policy (SSNGP). The government should allocate adequate
resources for gender mainstreaming. The government also needs
to increase financial allocation for interventions to increase
retention rates for girls and boys in schools. Thus the national
gender policy in gender mainstreaming has not produced any
success. | en_US |
