Description:
This classification of different types of training for gender equality aims to support training commissioners to plan, develop, design, deliver and evaluate training-related activities more strategically and realistically. The document provides a brief introduction on the need for clearer terminology in the sphere of training for gender equality; outlines five broad “types” of training (awareness-raising and consciousness-building; knowledge enhancement; skills training; change in attitudes, behaviours and practices; and mobilisation for social transformation). It then connects these types to the stages of the training cycle, while reflecting on issues like modalities, methodologies, methods, audiences, facilitators, time-frames and budgets. An annex of key terms is also provided.
