Le rôle principal d'un point focal est d'agir comme «catalyseur» pour stimuler le processus d'intégration des questions d’égalité de genre dans un bureau ou un service. Si les points focaux peuvent être directement concernés par la mise en oeuvre d'activités portant sur l'égalité de genre, y compris avec les mandants, leur contribution doit être axée principalement sur leur rôle d'aide aux collègues et [à la gestion du personnel]. 8, record 1, French, - point%20focal%20pour%20le%20genre
