Second Arab Region ToT Workshop: Gender Mainstreaming in IWRM
-
The second Training of Trainers workshop on Gender and IWRM in the Arabic language was organised in Jordan from 1-7 November 2008. It was organised in partnership with Cap-net and AWARENET, and hosted by the Queen Zein al Sharaf Institute for Development (ZENID) in Amman, Jordan. The 16 participants came from Jordan, Lebanon, Palestinian Territories, Egypt, Sudan and Yemen.
Lessons learned from GWA’s first Arab Region TOT held in Tunis (Nov. 07) were applied in this workshop. More time was devoted for understanding of the gender concept, gender responsive budgeting, gender and sanitation, and linking these issues to the reality of the region. In addition specific attention was paid to practical exercises and tailor made training methods to provide the participants with the skills and tools to train others in gender mainstreaming in their countries’ water sector.
The report describes the course programme from session to session; the animated discussions on gender perceptions; and explains through text and photographs the course methodology like the meta-plan technique, ranking exercises, role play on preparing a training course budget, and more.

First Arab Region ToT Workshop: Gender Mainstreaming in IWRM
-
From 26 November- 02 December 2007, GWA conducted its first regional Training of Trainers course in Gender Mainstreaming in Integrated Water Resources Management for the Arab region, in Tunisia. The course was hosted by the Center for Arab Women Training and Research (CAWTAR) in Tunis, and organized in collaboration with AWARENET, Cap-Net, IDRC/WaDImena and GEWAMED.
The TOT course aimed to strengthen the capacity of trainers and increase the number of trainers in the Arab Region that can effectively train others in Gender mainstreaming in Integrated Water Resources Management. A total of 13 women and 6 men coming from Algeria, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Palestine, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, Tunisia and Yemen participated very enthusiastically in the course. By the end of the course the participants had produced 15 action plans on mainstreaming gender in IWRM in their own countries.
This report describes and reviews the many issues involved with course preparations, provides the 7 days programme schedule with the sessions and experiences; and gives a detailed account on lessons learned with recommendations for future courses.
