Gender equality is a core part of the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office's work as a force for good in the world. The Strategic Vision for Gender Equality continues to reflect and respond to the UK Government's ambitions on this agenda. We will retain and build on the Strategic Vision, including bringing a clear focus on implementation and taking advantage of our diplomatic and development levers. We do not see the core ambitions of the Strategic Vision changing. Our structural re-organisation following the launch of the FCDO continues, including at board level.
