Abstract
La igualdad de mujeres y hombres es uno de los derechos clave del Ordenamiento Jurídico, constituye un valor capital para la democracia y es un objetivo que debe integrarse en todas las políticas y acciones de los Estados. En este trabajo se analizan los textos normativos sobre igualdad de género internacionales, europeos e internos, haciendo énfasis en cómo se han ido incorporando los principios de igualdad de oportunidades, de no discriminación y de transversalidad de la perspectiva de género. Desde el derecho privado, se aborda la igualdad como un valor emergente de la responsabilidad social empresarial y se analizan las previsiones sobre esta materia en la Ley orgánica 3/2007 para la igualdad efectiva de mujeres y hombres, destacando la regulación para conseguir la presencia equilibrada de mujeres y hombres en los consejos de administración de las empresas españolas. Asimismo, se proponen indicadores de medición de la igualdad en diversas áreas consideradas clave en la gestión empresarial. Se analizan también las funciones y características específicas de la metodología de evaluación del impacto de género, proceso que pretende traducir la igualdad de mujeres y hombres en acción rutinaria de los poderes públicos a partir del análisis estructurado de las repercusiones en mujeres y hombres como parte integral en la elaboración de las políticas. Asimismo, se identifican los elementos e indicadores para realizar estas evaluaciones. Finalmente, se ofrece un estudio sobre la regulación de los informes de impacto de género previstos como documentos que deben incorporarse en el expediente de tramitación de disposiciones normativas, y su tratamiento diferenciado en las Comunidades Autónomas de Andalucía y País Vasco, así como un balance detallado de su desarrollo y eficacia en Cataluña.Equality between women and men is one of the key rights of the legal system. It constitutes a great value for democracy and it is an objective that must be integrated into all the policies and actions of the States. International, European and internal legal regulations on gender equality are analyzed in this study, emphasizing on how they have incorporated the principles of equal opportunity, non-discrimination and mainstreaming from a gender perspective. In private law, equality is approached as an emerging value of social corporate responsibility, and provisions on this matter are discussed in Organic Law 3/2007 on the effective equality of women and men, stressing the regulation to achieve a balanced presence of women and men on boards of directors in the Spanish companies. Also, measurement indicators of equality in various areas, which are considered key in business management, are proposed. Moreover, this study analyses the specific functions and characteristics of the methodology of gender impact assessment, which is a process that seeks to translate the equality of women and men in the routine government action. This is pursued through a structured analyses on the impact on women and men as an integral part of the policy making. Also, the elements and indicators for these assessments are identified. Finally, this thesis offers a study on the regulation of gender impact reports and documents intended to be incorporated into the processing file of regulatory provisions, and its differential treatment in the regions of Andalusia and the Basque Country, as well as a detailed assessment of its development and effectiveness in Catalonia.

Social Protection in Low Income Countries and Fragile Situations : Challenges and Future DirectionsOvadiya, Mirey; Zampaglione, Giuseppe; Das, Maitreyi; Andrews, Colin; Elder, John (World Bank, Washington, DC, 2013-05-28)Demand for social protection is growing in low income countries and fragile situations. In recent years, the success of social protection (SP) interventions in middle income countries (MICs) like Brazil and Mexico, along with the series of food, fuel, and financial crises, has prompted policymakers in low income countries (LICs) and fragile situations (FSs) to examine the possibility of introducing such programs in their own countries. Flagship programs in countries as diverse as Ethiopia, India, Pakistan, and Rwanda have shown the adaptability of social protection interventions to the LIC context. Yet, despite growing levels of support for these initiatives, many challenges remain. In LICs and FSs, governments are confronted with a nexus of mutually reinforcing deficits that increase the need for SP programs and simultaneously reduce their ability to successfully respond. Governments face hard choices about the type, affordability, and sustainability of SP interventions. The paper reviews how these factors affect SP programs in these countries and identifies ways to address the deficits. It supports the establishment of resilient SP systems to address specific needs and vulnerabilities and to respond flexibly to both slow and sudden onset crises. To achieve this, both innovation and pragmatism are required in three strategic areas: (i) building the basic blocks of SP systems (e.g., targeting, payments, and monitoring and evaluation); (ii) ensuring financial sustainability; and (iii) promoting good governance and transparency. These issues suggest the possibility of a different trajectory in the development of social protection in LICs than in MICs. The implications for World Bank support include the need to focus on increasing knowledge and operational effectiveness of SP programs, fostering institutional links between multiple SP programs, and using community capacity and technological innovations to overcome bottlenecks in operations.

Managing Risk, Promoting GrowthWorld Bank (World Bank, Washington, DC, 2016-02-08)A growing body of evidence demonstrates
 that individuals and households experience a range of
 positive outcomes from social protection. Social protection
 increases productivity and growth. Countries can realize
 significant benefits by creating an integrated social
 protection system. Social protection is affordable in
 low-income countries despite tight budgets. While overall
 spending on social protection in Africa remains low by
 international standards, experience suggests that social
 protection programs can achieve national coverage at the
 cost of only 1 to 2 percent of gross domestic product (GDP).
 While this is only a portion of the financing required to
 operate a social protection system, it draws attention to
 what countries can achieve in the short-term. Indeed, one
 way in which existing social protection spending can be made
 significantly more efficient would be by reallocating
 existing financing for inefficient subsidies and ad hoc
 emergency food aid to predictable safety nets. At the same
 time, pursuing reforms to social security systems will
 ensure their fiscal sustainability, while expanding
 coverage. Notably, the costs of not protecting poor families
 are very high, are borne disproportionately by women and
 children, and undermine the productivity of future
 generations. The Strategy will be implemented by leveraging
 partnerships, knowledge, and the World Bank's financing
 instruments. The World Bank will continue to invest in
 analytical work to fill knowledge gaps and promote an
 evidence-based dialogue for social protection systems in
 Africa and further innovation. It will work with governments
 to build country-owned national social protection systems
 with the aim of reducing fragmentation in the sector. The
 Bank also will pay particular attention to institutional
 development and capacity building by using its lending to
 increase the coverage of successful social protection
 interventions. Throughout this work, the Bank will work in
 coordination with governments, development partners, the
 private sector, academics, civil society, and beneficiaries.

ISSPThe International Social Survey Programme (ISSP) is a continuing annual programme of cross-national collaboration on surveys covering topics important for social science research. It brings together pre-existing national social science projects and co-ordinates research goals, thereby adding a cross-national, cross-cultural perspective to the individual, national studies. Formed in 1983, the group develops topical modules dealing with important areas of social science as supplements to regular national surveys. Every survey includes questions about general attitudes toward various social issues such as the legal system, sex, and the economy. Special topics have included the environment, the role of government, social inequality, social support, family and gender issues, work orientation, the impact of religious background, behaviour, and beliefs on social and political preferences, and national identity. Participating countries vary for each topical module. The merging of the data into a cross-national dataset is performed by the Zentralarchiv fuer Empirische Sozialforschung, University of Cologne. A compact disc (CD-ROM) (archived under SN 3479) containing data and documentation for ISSP surveys carried out 1985-1996, 1998, 2000 and 2002 is available from the UKDA. Main Topics:The CD-ROM contains the complete collection of data and documentation of the International Social Survey Programme (ISSP) between 1985 and 1996, 1998, 2000. In these years, the ISSP conducted twelve different Social Science Surveys in up to 30 countries. The collection comprises the following titles: 1985 - Role of Government I (6 countries) (ZA 1490,UKDA 2448) 1986 - Social Networks and Support Systems (7 countries) (ZA 1620, UKDA 2560) 1987 - Social Inequality I (10 countries) (ZA 1680,UKDA 2702) 1988 - Family and Changing Sex Roles I (8 countries) (ZA 1700, UKDA 2744) 1989 - Work Orientations I (10 countries) (ZA 1840, UKDA 2864) 1990 - Role of Government II (9 countries) (ZA 1950, UKDA 2956) 1991 - Religion (16 countries) (ZA 2150, UKDA 3062) 1992 - Social Inequality II (17 countries) (ZA 2310, UKDA 3498) 1993 - Environment (20 countries) (ZA 2450, UKDA 3473) 1994 - Family and Changing Gender Roles II (22 countries) (ZA 2620, UKDA 3584) 1995 - National Identity (22 countries) (ZA 2880, UKDA 3809) 1996 - Role of Government III (23 countries) (ZA 2900, UKDA 4480) 1998 - Religion 11 (30 countries) (ZA 3190, UKDA 4482) 2000 - Environment 2000 (34 countries) (ZA 3440, UKDA 4827) 2002 - Family and Changing Gender Roles III (34 countries) (ZA 3880, UKDA 5018) Additionally, the 1985 and 1990 surveys, Role of the Government I and II, have been cumulated for those countries and those variables which have been included in both surveys: 1985/1990 - Role of the Government I/II (5 countries) (ZA 2240, UKDA 3499). All of the above are also available as separate datasets. The data for 1997, 1999 and 2001 are available separately on dedicated CD ROMs.
