La clasificación del gasto público es clave para planificar, monitorear y evaluar políticas orientadas a garantizar derechos y reducir brechas en grupos prioritarios. En Ecuador, los Clasificadores de Orientación de Gasto en Políticas de Igualdad permiten identificar los recursos destinados a enfoques como género, discapacidad, interculturalidad y ciclo de vida.

La consultoría tiene como objetivo realizar un diagnóstico integral de estos clasificadores y, con base en sus resultados, proponer mejoras, desarrollar instrumentos técnicos y diseñar un plan de capacitación que fortalezca su uso para una gestión eficiente del gasto público con enfoque de igualdad.
