This paper explores the differences between training and education, specifically in relation to training for gender equality. The objective is to further clarify the UN Women Training Centre’s definition of training for gender equality, and in particular how it differs from and overlaps with the field of feminist adult education. While there are key differences between training for gender equality and feminist adult education, they share a common commitment to feminist pedagogical principles and practices. As such, it is more helpful to conceptualize these two fields as co-constituting on a continuum of learning, as opposed to in opposition.
