A manual for integrating gender into reproductive health and HIV programs: from commitment to action (533 kb)

This manual promotes greater understanding of how gender relations and identities affect individuals' and groups' capacity to negotiate and obtain better RH/HIV/AIDS decisions and outcomes.

Users of the manual will learn how to harness an increased awareness of gender considerations for the design, implementation, and evaluation of more effective programs that strengthen the ability of participants to make informed choices about their sexual relations and reproductive health. The resource includes chapters on guiding principles and a process for integrating gender throughout the program cycle, as well as case study material.

The resource can be used at any stage of the program cycle: from program design to program
evaluation. However, it will be most effective if used to guide program decisions throughout the life of a project.
