All the staff of the Office of the Comptroller General of the Republic of Chile (CGR) where this axis of the Policy was led.

The session was accompanied by an interaction phase where the panelists were able to answer 2 questions through the Mentimeter platform: 1) In which process of the work life cycle do you consider it more complex or challenging to apply the gender and non-discrimination perspective? And 2) What do you consider to be the most relevant stage of the work life cycle to start implementing the gender perspective in your SAIs? These sessions gave the opportunity to comment on the five elements that make up the work-life cycle (language and communications, Target audience, Team in charge of its execution, Rules and stages of the process, and Reconciliation in the execution of the process) and how they have been implemented.
