3. Link between the context and the
objective of costing
• Competencies assigned at the central level and to the
GGAA in the new Plurinational State of Bolivia.
• Public policies to reduce violence towards women.
• Budgets allocated by the GGAA to carry out gender
related actions.
• Attributions of different levels of the government.
• Political will of female ministers ofgovernment.
• Objective: To create a Costing System for Gender
Equality.

4. Justification of adaptation of the costing tool
• Why is important to adapt the costing tool?:
– Because we need a tool that articulates the mandate of
public policy with the cost of its implementation.
– Because we need to articulate the mandate of the law with
the competencies of GGAA.
• What do we want to cost?: The implementation of public
policies for the effective exercise of competencies.
• How does costing contributes to gender equality policies?: By
identifying the minimum cost for the fulfillment of the rights
established in gender equality policies.

• Actors involved in the knowledge management of
costs of services of the Law 348 trough the
implementation of the socialization process of the
costing exercise.
• Results of the costing exercise approved by the

System for gender policies.
o Coherence matrix (political guidelines).
o Goals and indicators for the reduction of gaps.
o Tools for estimating costs.
