Description:
This document analyses contemporary training manuals for gender and diversity trainings within the EU and the UN to show that ‘intersectionality’ is a concept which is rarely explicitly used in the training field. First, it critically discusses different approaches towards intersectionality and their conceptualisations of intersectional inequalities. Second, it presents the analysis of training manuals by specifically focusing on the lack of intersectional perspectives. Finally, it discusses how the theoretical, legal and political conceptualisations of intersectionality can be transferred into trainings by discussing which minimum effects the concept should have on methods/material, training conditions and trainer’s profiles.
