The mission of the Joint Parliamentary Women's Caucus is to promote gender equality and empower women by uniting women parliamentarians across party lines. The Caucus advocates, enacts, and monitors gender- and child-sensitive laws and budgets to ensure equality for all, particularly women, children, and the vulnerable. The Caucus also provides a platform for exchanging ideas, forming collective platforms, and supporting one another on issues of common concern.

The Caucus has the following objectives:

• Promote solidarity and collaboration among women parliamentarians, regardless of political party affiliation, to advance the cause of gender equality.

• Advocate for policy and legislative changes that promote gender equality and women's empowerment, including laws and budgets that are gender- and child-sensitive.

• Raise awareness among parliamentarians, the public and media about gender equality issues, such as pay equity, gender-based violence, and women's political participation.

• Provide opportunities for training and capacity-building for women parliamentarians to enhance their effectiveness as legislators and representatives.

• Undertake research and data analysis on issues relating women’s rights and interests to generate evidence-based information and recommendation to inform policy and legislative decisions.

• Monitor the implementation of gender equality policies and legislation and hold governments accountable for their commitments.

• Lobby for support from non-governmental and inter-governmental organizations, including civil society groups, development partners, and regional bodies, to advance the agenda of the Women's Caucus and promote gender equality.
