| Gender |
According to the final completion report: The project’s efforts to address gender issues in the project area have centered on encouraging women’s participation in the project as much as possible. According to the project team the focus of this has been to attempt to increase their decision-making power over project activities and inputs as this has required continued strengthening. The project has used two approaches to increase women’s participation and leadership. The first approach involves encouraging women to contribute with their ideas at meetings and trainings. The second approach, which is likely to be more effective over the long term, has been to develop women’s capacity by providing them with training in report writing, financial management and leadership skills. These trainings are provided to women who sit on CBO committees. |
