MCA-Nepal requires incorporation of Gender and Social Inclusion (GSI) in both project design and implementation. The MCC Gender Policy and MCC Gender Integration Guidelines (2016) provide overall guidance on specific operational requirements, procedures and milestones, roles and responsibilities for GSI at all stages of Compact development and implementation. The development of a Social and Gender Integration Plan (SGIP) before Compact implementation is also a key MCC requirement that seeks to systemize GSI across all project activities in order to achieve the intended results.
