CONCLUSIONS: Applying the Policy Scorecard for Gender Mainstreaming to local and country-specific policies is revealing of governments' commitment to women, and how well gender equity goals are embedded into policies and programs. Policy analysis using this gender-sensitive Policy Scorecard provides opportunities for advocacy to advance women's health and gender equity at any level of government, in any country.
