Program Introduction
Gender training is the practical tool for analyzing gender differentiation and provides adequate knowledge regarding major factors that influence and are responsible for maintaining or change the structure of gender differentiation. It is also a development intervention which aims to change awareness, knowledge, skill and behavior in relation to gender. It concerns with developing skills, capacity to translate such awareness into very specific tools that can be used into practice. Gender training may be seen as methodology of consciousness raising and empowerment of women, individually or collectively, or as a way of making project design and implementation or service delivery more gender sensitive or as a means to effect institutional changes. With the knowledge, appropriate policy, intervention can be designed to enhance women’s status enabling them to take an equal place with men and to participate equally in the development process.
