Description:
The Manual can be used for the orientation of education managers, policy-makers, curriculum developers, media professionals, adult learners and even the public at large on education that is gender sensitive. It is organized into ten sections that build on one another to sharpen participants’ understanding of gender-biased thinking within, and all around, them. This Manual embodies the rich experience gained from UNESCO workshops in Asia and the Pacific, sub-Saharan Africa and the Arab States. Designed to be a road map for conducting trainings of a similar nature, it is a product of UNESCO efforts to increase awareness of gender issues, suggest guidelines for a gender-sensitive approach to education, and promote respect for the equally valid roles that men and women play in their families, their communities and their nations.
