Irish Aid Gender Mainstreaming Training held at UP
By Yvonne Oyieke

Posted on 01 October 2013

The Gender Unit with funding from the Irish Aid hosted gender mainstreaming training from 16 - 20 September 2013 at the University of Pretoria. This training targets government officials, Irish Aid NGO partners and university staff and is designed to expose a key group of participants to the theory and practice of gender mainstreaming.

This year’s participants ranged from representatives of the Philippines, Tanzania and Ethiopia. Also included were participants from various NGOs in Zimbabwe and South Africa as well as representatives from the Department of Women, Children and Persons with Disabilities and the University of Pretoria.

The week long training began with a short overview of gender and related concepts, a brief introduction to human rights and gender equality under the UN system as well as an introduction to the Women's Protocol to the African Charter. The rest of the themes for the week dealt with Gender Analysis and Mainstreaming as well as Gender Planning Monitoring and Evaluation.

The presenters for this training are highly skilled and included representatives from UN Women, the Office of the Deputy President, Choice Trust, University of Bergen as well as the Centre for Human Rights. The week culminated in the development of implementation projects where all the participants designed gender mainstreaming projects to be implemented within their own organisations. They have to return to the Centre for Human Rights early next year to report on the challenges and successes noted in the implementation of their projects as well as general recommendations and reflections to be shared on their mainstreaming experience.

It was an energetic training marked by constant debate and engagement between the participants who were not afraid to take on the various presenters where they did not agree. What a memorable week it was and we look forward to welcoming back the participants of 2013 for the report back session

Somebody is footing the bill for these extremist loons to sit around coming up with this non-sense.

Gee, I wonder who.

It's an equal rights issue, so no one would expect you to understand it.

Department of Women, Children and Persons with Disabilities and the University of Pretoria.

Yes, this makes sense, because these population demographics have so much in common.

Its got nothing to do with "equal rights."

My guess its some effort to destroy what's left of the traditional family unit and blur all differences between the sexes, though its presented in such an esoteric manner I'm really not sure.

You said you couldn't figure out what the hell it was.

How did you get so smart so quickly?

I don't see your continent mentioned anywhere in the press release. Could it be that your panic attack is just a wee bit premature?

What they are saying is that it is OK to HAVE a penis as long as you are to young or too (chortle) infirm to use it. All else are less capable unless a program is instituted to help them be lifted up to the plateau that the male patriarchy selfishly pushes them from.

Why is this loony stuff found at universitites all over the world? Even in the heart of "die ou Transvaal."

Because Universities are where you find the smart people. Did you ever figure out what "gender mainstreaming" means?

It's okay. It's an adult site. You can use cuss words.

It's a good lesson. If you want to look smart, don't use "acting dumb" as a rhetorical device.

"Smart people?" By what objective measurement? The fact that the kind of people that the admissions departments are admitting that are US citizens don't seem to go into the S.T.E.M. fields I'm pretty sure that the university system isn't designed to gather up and reward those with the highest caliber IQ's in this country.

There are lots of really smart foreigners going to universities. Some of them fortunately do stay and work in the US or we would really be in trouble..

Yeah, I know. You can't walk on to a university campus and swing a cat without hitting some low IQ motherfucker. They ought to spray for them, or something.

The thing is, Renny actually pronounces "@#$%" when he types it.

There's probably only three idiot savants in the world who can pronounce alphanumerics as coherent speech and we have one of 'em!

Hey I take offense to that. When you spend enough time in Videoland you never know when being able to speak Q-Bert might come in handy. I'll remember that the next time we're on a Sugar Rush and a Cy-Bug tries to eat you.
