Description:
This publication outlines an in-depth study on gender equality training conducted by the European Institute (EIGE). It examines the effectiveness of gender training in supporting the implementation of gender mainstreaming. The findings offer evidence of the effectiveness of gender training at the individual, organisational and societal levels by facilitating positive change in the attitudes of policymakers and others, thus evoking more efficient actions in the sphere of gender equality. This study analyses the conditions that need to be met for gender training to produce desired outcomes, demonstrating that training needs to be institutionalised, systematic and of a high quality if it is to bring about long-term, effective change.
