Gender training and fragile states: what works? (pdf 2.5mb)

The Gender and Peacebuilding Working Group of Peacebuild and Oxfam Canada held a two-day workshop in January 2008, to examine the state of gender training in the context of security and fragile states.

The participants represented staff from national and international machineries and non-governmental organizations, as well as consultants.

The experiences shared at the workshop suggest that those involved in delivering gender training are asking important questions about how these linkages can be better tracked and provide the much needed evidence from which to draw further conclusions about success in gender training.

The workshop highlighted the need for improved monitoring and evaluation, organisational learning and knowledge management around gender training and how it fits into other organisational change processes.
