Resumen
La igualdad de género ocupa actualmente un lugar central en las estrategias de Ayuda Oficial al Desarrollo. Los oferentes de cooperación internacional consideran que disminuir la brecha de género es un factor clave para el desarrollo sostenible. Entre ellos se distingue la Unión Europea, la cual, a partir de su rol de normative power, se constituyó como un actor central en el impulso de las agendas de género a través de sus relaciones exteriores. Esto puede observarse en el caso de África, un socio privilegiado europeo donde se han desplegado numerosos programas y proyectos orientados principalmente a disminuir el gap de género y empoderar económicamente a las mujeres. En este contexto, el artículo aborda el rol que ha tenido la cooperación europea en la difusión de valores y prácticas de género en el continente africano, dando cuenta de las principales iniciativas ejecutadas y brindando algunas reflexiones sobre los resultados alcanzados.
