This paper examines how the European Union (EU) promotes gender equality in development cooperation through gender mainstreaming and targeted gender-equality actions. It asks whether this twin-track approach delivers meaningful results, where its strengths and weaknesses lie and what is at stake in the post-2027 period. The current EU framework is ambitious and gender mainstreaming has become increasingly visible and routine across EU development cooperation. In many mainstreamed actions, gender is included in diagnostic framing, cross-cutting commitments and some indicators, helping to bring gender equality into sectors where it was previously more marginal. However, the quality and depth of mainstreaming remain uneven. Gender is often better integrated in design and narrative than in implementation, resource allocation, accountability and structural change. Targeted actions are usually clearer and more direct in addressing gender inequality as the central problem, but remain more limited in number, scale and sectoral reach. The paper concludes that mainstreaming and targeted actions are indispensable and complementary. The post-2027 framework should make the twin-track approach more consequential. It is recommended to protect binding gender targets in the Global Europe instrument, use Gender Action Plan IV to set stronger operational standards, improve gender budgeting and reporting, and ensure that EU delegations and implementing partners have the expertise and resources needed to carry gender commitments through implementation.
