Training Modules

Generic Training Modules

Training packages have been designed for the training of selected practioners (policy makers, planners and project implementers, NGOs, private sector and academia) to increase their understanding of gender and energy inter-relationships and their capacity to bring gender aspects of energy into the policy and project planning.

Training modules have been developed on the following topics:
  • Gender and Energy Policy - the rationale and tools for developing and implementing gender aware policies
  • Gender and Advocacy - tools, techniques and the rationale for policy advocacy
  • Project Proposal Development - tools to plan and produce competitive energy and gender proposals

The training modules - entitled "The Gender Face of Energy" - are available to download here. Each module includes the introduction, training guide / manual (in English), and the module in question:
