Feminist Edge: Sign up for a new Professional Development Programme for Gender Trainers

by Ruya Leghari -

The UN Women Training Centre and Royal Tropical Institute (KIT) of the Netherlands are launching the latest edition of their Professional Development Programme for Gender Trainers. Called "Feminist Edge", the programme offers professional development for gender trainers that re-captures and re-imagines gender training as a feminist project. It repositions training for gender equality as a strategy to challenge and engender mainstream development and support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The programme addresses the need to (re)claim autonomous spaces for feminist knowledge production and challenges development policy makers and practitioners to re-think how to address social and gender inequity to ensure that “no one is left behind.” Feminist Edge focuses both on the practice of gender training and on its conceptual underpinnings.

Learn more and sign up here. Applications will be accepted until 14 July 2023. The 6-month certificate course will run from 12 February to 9 August 2024.

Igualdad política

by JOSSELINE CORTEZANO GOMEZ -

La igualdad política formal garantiza que todos los ciudadanos tengan acceso a los mismos derechos políticos, es decir, que todos y cada uno de ellos puedan votar, presentarse como candidato a determinado cargo, manifestar sus opiniones sin reservas ni censuras, exigir responsabilidad a sus representantes y a organizarse en partidos políticos. Al mismo tiempo, las instituciones reconocen a cada uno de los ciudadanos el acceso y ejercicio de esos derechos en partes iguales a cada uno.

Igualdad política sustantiva

La igualdad política sustantiva se contempla cuando en el campo de la práctica política, y por consiguiente, social y económica, todos los ciudadanos tienen los mismos derechos y las mismas oportunidades para acceder a estos derechos.

IGUALDAD SALARIAL POR UNA MEJOR CALIDAD EDUCATIVA VENEZUELA

by Yimari Quintero -

Hola soy Yimari Quintero saludos y bendiciones desde Venezuela... Soy docente y he realizado contribuciones en la Calidad Educativa con la creación de un Manual Agenda Escolar, libro que se encuentra publicado en una Editorial Española y he contribuido a difundir mi ensayo con algunos docentes de mi país. Mi preocupación actualmente es la falta de motivación del gremio docente debido a su baja remuneración con respecto al trabajo que realizan para ofrecer una buena educación en Venezuela, ya que un maestro con el mas alto rango apenas gana 50$ y otros no llegan ni a 30$ mensuales para subsistir, con una canasta de alimentos básicos que pasa los 300$ mensual, es por ello que levanto mi voz en pro de todos los docente venezolanos por un SUELDO DIGNO que les permita cubrir sus necesidades básica, por una buena CALIDAD DE VIDA y CALIDAD EDUCATIVA e IGUALDAD DE CONDICIONES PARA TODOS LOS TRABAJADORES VENEZOLANOS.
