Gender Mainstreaming Training Kit

The Gender Mainstreaming Reference Toolkit is intended to serve as a resource document for assisting the EMHRN and its member organisations, as well as generalist human rights organisations, women’s rights organisations and other civil society groups, in mainstreaming gender in their policies, programmes and interventions. As such, it is a both a knowledge and a practical tool.

The GMRK is intended to facilitate a process of internal discussion and ownership for gender mainstreaming as well as kick off internal Gender Mainstreaming processes within the framework of Human Rights and other NGOs at the level of their policies (both internally and externally), their programmes and their activities. In doing so, the GMRK provides necessary knowledge, tools and methods to discuss the key concepts of gender and gender mainstreaming. This may include for instance exercises which require participants to undertake an analysis of the causes and manifestations of gender inequality within their specific contexts.
