GENDER EQUALITY RESULT
Increase in gender equality capacity-building
INDICATOR(S)
Number of persons trained with (X agency's) assistance to advance outcomes consistent with gender equality or female empowerment through their roles in public or private sector institutions or organizations
Notes:
To be counted under this indicator, a person must have been trained in their role as an actor within a public or private sector institution or organization. Persons receiving training in their individual capacity, such as livelihoods training designed to increase individual or household income, should not be counted under this indicator. Public or private sector institutions or organizations include but are not limited to: government agencies forming part of the executive, judicial, or legislative branches; public and private health, financial, and education institutions; and civil society organizations such as rights advocacy groups, business associations, faith-based groups, and labor unions.
To be counted under this indicator, persons must have participated in a training of at least 3 hours, with content designed to develop or strengthen the institution’s/organization’s capacity to advance gender equality or female empowerment objectives. Stand-alone gender trainings may be counted under this indicator, as well as trainings where gender is integrated within a broader sector training. In the latter case, the training must include a substantial focus on gender issues (e.g., gender issues are addressed throughout the training, there is a gender module that explores the relevent gender issues in depth, etc.).
Examples of this type of training include:
training judges on how to execute laws with gender-related implications or provisions such as a new law criminalizing domestic violence
training county officials on gender-responsive budgeting under a devolution project
training community health service workers in GBV referral and response protocols
training teachers or school officials on effective strategies for creating a safe learning environment for boys and girls
training political party leadership on effective ways to support and advance women’s leadership in party structures and political processes
training legal aid society volunteers or paralegals in dispute resolution related to women's land and property rights
training for business association or financial institution representatives on strategies for creating products and services that address barriers to women’s entrepreneurship
