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.
