Programme information and contact
This six-month certified programme, offered jointly by UN Women Training Centre and the Royal Tropical Institute (KIT) aims to:

- sharpen training skills and knowledge of gender and development concepts as a gender equality trainer
- enable participants to better employ learning and knowledge strategies
- support participants to re-claim training for gender equality as a political feminist process
- renew participants as a gender equality trainer and their commitment to gender training as a transformatory process

Using a combination of lectures, guest presentations and practical activities and assignments, the programme strengthens trainers’ capacities in three inter-related domains:

- Conceptual Depth and Clarity: gender and development theory and practice in various themes; and global approaches to gender in development
- Feminist Practices: gender knowledge and knowledge making and power; reflexivity; change and resistance; and global governance of development and client relations
- Training Skills and Methods: training design, delivery and evaluation; communication skills; and learner-centered pedagogy
The programme employs blended design including face-to-face workshops (Amsterdam, the Netherlands), virtual seminars as well as mentoring and networking.

The programme works in a co-creation process with experienced gender trainers from both the global south and north who:

- have a minimum of three years of training experience on gender issues.
- have knowledge of gender and development and gender in public policy.
- have an institutional affiliation/experience: UN agencies, international and national NGOs, national governments, academia, etc.
- demonstrate commitment to completing the six-month process of professional development.

The fee for the programme is EUR 4,950 and the registration process will close 26th of July 2017. However, we are accepting applicants on a first-come first-serve basis.
