Abstract
The focus of this article is to consider how the national gender machinery (NGM) - a set of integrated structures meant to promote gender equality, proposed in the South African Policy Framework for Women's Empowerment and Gender equality - is currently operating within the state, and how these operations affect the attainment of gender equality outside of the state.-
