They also included a review of existing law-making manuals and/or tools using the gender-based analysis-plus tool. The workshop was implemented with support from Global Affairs Canada / Affaires mondiales Canada. The implementing partners of the Inclusive Legislatures for Gender Responsive Policies (ILGRP) project are the African Centre for Parliamentary Affairs- ACEPA and the Parliamentary Centre.
