Integrated policy strategies represent an increasingly popular approach in urban development and gender policies. This article analyses the integration between integral urban policies and gender mainstreaming in the European Union. A specific analytical proposal is elaborated and applied to urban policies promoted by the EU in Spain between 1994 and 2013. The Comparative Urban Policy Portfolio Analysis is used to study the inclusion of gender-sensitive policy measures in local project portfolios, their transversality across policy sectors, and the relevance of two main approaches to analyse them. The results show that integral urban development programmes have incorporated gender-sensitive policy measures. Results also show a low level of transversality focused mainly on social integration, although they combine objectives focused on a women-centred approach to classical areas of gender inequality affecting women, i.e., employment, education, health, and a gender approach focused on new welfare challenges linked to care and defamilisation. These results show the relevance of analysing gender approaches included in integral urban policies to comprehend the character of their gender mainstreaming and their potential effects on more gender-equal cities.

While there are several different approaches to the study of gender and science, this paper focuses on the consequences of the introduction of the concept of gender on studies of scientific and medical practices. It is limited, in the main, to historical studies of twentieth‐century biomedicine, which allows an examination of the validity of scientific assumptions underlying our understanding of the natural world, the genesis and the present status of scientific definitions of masculinity and femininity, and the ideological basis of science‐based technological interventions in the domain of sexuality and reproduction.

This paper presents a discussion on gender in education. Education is the major pivot on which the orbit of any society rotates. To a large extent, education determines the paces of economics, political, sociological, technological development of any nation, hence it should be made available to all gender without compromise. The paper further discussed the need for all and sundry to see that the female gender is properly educated. This stems from the fact that Nigeria as well as most African countries are still governed by many dehumanizing cultural beliefs and practices which violate fundamental human rights and institute the superiority of men over women, boys over girls in different spheres of life. As a result education is denied the female gender. The paper further asserts that if female are incorporated in education for all, they will be in a better state to discourage their children and husbands from joining the band wagon to do evil, sanity will be achieved and the wheel of progress will be turned in the right direction. The paper made some recommendations that include among others, the issue of equal education opportunity and education for all (EFA) as entrenched in the National Policy of Education, and also as endorsed by the pan African conference on girl Child education to be taken more serious.
