Promotion of equality between men and women, non-discrimination and accessibility Sample Clauses

Promotion of equality between men and women, non-discrimination and accessibility. The general principles of addressing horizontal themes, including the promotion of equality between men and women, non-discrimination and access, are described in section 1.5.4 of the Partnership Agreement.
