Thanks to the authors and drafting team for providing the Zero Draft of the Guidelines and offering the opportunity to review and comment.
I find that the Zero Draft of the Guidelines covers a wide range of considerations that intersect with food security and nutrition, setting a very wide stage for attention and action. In fact, it is almost dauntingly wide, ranging from legal rights for property ownership to education to income-generating activities to intra-household division of labor to physical safety and security.
I struggled while reading, to understand how the guidelines would look if applied. The detailed examples of applying gender quotas for representation or to calculate and monitor the value of uncompensated domestic work are important and illustrative, and additional examples of detailed action steps could be helpful to inform readers. Similarly, is there scope to offer examples where actions have been taken to address gender-based inequalities? Those examples could be useful in convincing the reader that the wide-ranging change that is envisioned within the document can be feasible.
Thank you again for the opportunity to review and comment. I look forward to see the revised draft in early 2022.
