    Analysis, not a restated budget

    11 minNo file attached in the prototype

    A gender budget statement that lists spending by ministry without analysing who it reaches is rejected as often as it is approved. This lecture builds a statement from a real sector budget, showing the analysis a treasury officer is actually checking for underneath the required format.

  2. Block 2 · text

    Every claim needs a number behind it

    'This programme benefits women and men equally' is a claim, not evidence. A statement that instead says '58% of participants in 2025 were women, against a target beneficiary population that is 51% women' gives a reviewer something to check, and something that survives scrutiny.
