Our response to the Draft Budget is clear. The Welsh Government must incorporate gender budgeting for positive long-term, sustainable impacts on gender inequality in Wales.

Today we release the sixth edition of the State of the Nation Report, following the closure of Chwarae Teg last year. While we are delighted to be carrying on the vital work, we are disheartened by the glacial pace toward gender equality in Wales. Here are our key findings ��

Women continued to make up most Universal Credit claimants (58%) and remained more likely than men to rely on Universal Credit despite working, as the gender gap for in-work claimants slightly increased.

We are still a long way away from ensuring that persons suffering from PCOS receive a timely diagnosis and appropriate care and support. Our Director, Victoria Vasey, spoke about it with @BBCWales.
