Gender mainstreaming is a strategic approach and important tool in order to achieve gender equality and sustainable socio-economic development. It requires that all programmes, policies and activities are viewed from a gender-perspective, i.e. considering both the role of women and men in the process as well as the effect the institutions/organisations have on women and men in the work environment as well as in their society. It is an important element of good governance due to its contribution to increased fairness, justice and equity between women and men in the development process.
As part of its efforts in order to support member countries in their gender mainstreaming initiatives, ECW will hold a sub-regional training workshop on gender mainstreaming for participants from Ministries of Labour and from National Women Machineries in Bahrain, Kuwait, Lebanon, Palestine, Qatar, the Sudan and Syria during the period 3-5 August, 2010 at the UN-House in Beirut, Lebanon.
The training workshop will look into aspects of organisations, organisational analysis from a gender perspective and how to develop action plans to mainstream gender in governmental institutions.
The training workshop will equip the participants with the necessary understanding and tools to analyse the ministry of labour from a gender perspective upon their return from the training programme and to come up with a strategy to mainstream gender in its policies, structure and programmes. ECW will follow up with participants in during August – November 2010, by documenting the experience of these efforts in the participating countries. In December 2010 ECW will organise a regional meeting to share the results and lessons learned.
