National Strategy for Equality and Non-Discrimination-  Portugal +Igual - (available only in Portuguese)  National Strategy for Equality and Non-Discrimination- Portugal +Igual - (available only in Portuguese)

 Within the implementation of the ENIND, new programs will be launched throughout 2018, temporally and substantially aligned with the 2030 Agenda  and supported by three main Action Plans that define specific and strategic goals in terms of non-discrimination on the grounds of gender and equality between men and women (IMH); prevention and fight against all forms of violence against women, gender violence and domestic violence (VMVD); ways to fight all forms of discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation, gender identity, transgender and sexual characteristics (OIEC). Moreover, these plans of action define the concrete measures to be implemented in the first period of four years until 2021, followed by a process of revision and redefinition for the following four-year period and so forth. In this context, under the motto ¿No one can be left behind¿, the 2030 Agenda is deeply transformative and a true roadmap for the period concerned, having as a goal the eradication of all structural obstacles to equality between men and women in the national territory and in the development cooperation plan.
