Abstract: 
This Gender Policy Framework outlines South Africa's vision for gender equality and for how it intends to realise this ideal. Like other generic policy documents which are transsectoral, such as the "White Paper on Transforming the Public Service," it is not meant to be prescriptive for the various sectors of government. Instead, it details the overarching principles, which will be integrated by all sectors into their own sectoral policies, practices and programmes. This Framework is presented by the Office on the Status of Women, located in the Presidency, and presented to and passed by, cabinet.
