Problem Statement

The problem we attempt to mitigate is the insufficient gender perspective of field employees/volunteers of NGOs engaged directly with the impacted population. 

 

Target Group

Employees and/ or volunteers of different NGOs working in territory directly with the impacted population. 

 

Proposed Solution

The solution we propose is an amplification of the gender perspective of field employees/volunteers of NGOs engaged directly with the impacted population. We aim to address this through the development of a program consisting of 3 workshops on gender perspective for 4/5 organizations and the creation of a manual which will not only condense the theoretical aspects of the trainings but will also provide tools to deal with these issues in practice.

Short & Long-Term Goals/Results

We aimed to train 20 employees/volunteers of diverse NGOs on gender perspective topics and to create a gender perspective manual condensing this information. 

Under the framework of these objectives, we were able to train 22 people and to create and design a manual with theory and practical tools to deal with gender issues in practice.

As long-term change we see the amplification of the gender perspective of field employees/volunteers of NGOs engaged directly with the impacted population.
