The implementation of housing law, policy and programming often requires that adequate budgetary support be put in place in order to ensure effectiveness. In order to ensure that there are adequate financial and human resources allocated, processes of participatory budgeting which are inclusive of women‘s voices should be used. Women should be active participants in open and transparent budgeting processes related to all aspects of housing law, policy and programmes as well as land use plans. Gender-sensitive, detailed budget analysis of current housing programmes and land use plans should also be employed, so as to ensure better accountability of States in promoting and realizing gender equality, and in meeting their international human rights obligations.
