About the Webinar
Building on the recently launched IW:LEARN publication How to Integrate Gender Equality, Women’s Empowerment and Inclusion in GEF IW Projects, this session, co-organized with WWAP, will present the methodology and demonstrate how it can be applied throughout the GEF project cycle to strengthen gender-responsive design and implementation.
Participants will be guided through key steps and practical approaches, with insights and lessons learned from projects on the ground and will have the opportunity to discuss how to further advance gender-responsive practices in their own work.
