The document summarizes the GENDER 4 GROWTH project, an INTERREG IVC initiative aimed at strengthening regional economic development policies related to gender issues. The project involves collecting and analyzing best practices from partner regions in four areas: employment, entrepreneurship, access to work, and women's participation. Partners evaluate practices using 10 criteria and select some for transfer to other regions. The goal is to reinforce awareness of gender in regional economic policymaking and increase involvement of stakeholders to better achieve the EU's Lisbon Strategy goals.
