The present paper is written as part of the overall VG consultation and development process
and is a contribution to the subsequent preparation of the Gender Technical Guide. The
present paper is based both on the outcomes of the VG consultation process to date and on
supporting research, consultation and literature review on gender and governance of tenure. It
contextualises and defines gender for the VG, discusses what governance of tenure means
from a gender perspective, and identifies and analyses key issues and themes.
