Gender training
is a didactic process, providing both conceptual information and basic skills in gender analysis and gender planning. It is participatory process in which the trainer or facilitator gives the trainee the necessary information and conceptual tools for incorporating gender concerns in his or her work. A participatory approach stresses that learning is better achieved through a two-way interaction between participants and facilitators. Learning also results from the participants sharing both their professional and personal experiences, thus owning the issues and the solutions.
