Description:
This publication offers a critical review of what gender training represents and how it relates and contributes to the successes and failures of gender mainstreaming since the late 1990s. Its chapters, contributed by a range of global gender experts, reflect on diverse perspectives – from India, Uganda, the Maghreb region, and the Francophone world. Overall, the book explores the explicit and implicit assumptions in gender training about the nature of knowledge (epistemology), imparting knowledge (pedagogy) and knowing (cognition). Its central aim is to promote and contribute to critical reflection on gender education and training.
