The Evaluation of the Strategic Positioning of IOC published by the UNESCO Internal Oversight Service Evaluation Office (August 2021; IOS/EVS/PI 197) included recommendations on how to advance gender equality across the programmes of the Commission. It also highlighted that the UNESCO global priority Gender Equality is not sufficiently resourced and lacks visibility in the ocean space within and outside IOC.
