Synopsis (short abstract) The training manual is composed of 5 learning blocks beginning with an overall introduction to the training by creating an enabling space for personal gender reflection. This is followed by sessions to build a foundation for gender analysis which unpack the concept of gender and gender roles through the Harvard Analytical Framework to facilitate the understanding of practical implications. Gender equity and equality is emphasized in forestry interventions as the goal of gender mainstreaming. The core components of gender mainstreaming in gender-sensitive actions are discussed. The practical tools for mainstreaming gender into forestry interventions are explored through project management cycles from assessment until evaluation and re-planning process. Gender mainstreaming in organization is also addressed with specific action points for each participant to follow after the training.

    This gender mainstreaming guide has been designed to assist FAO technical officers, in particular officers working in forestry, to develop actions in forestry-related projects and programmes at headquarters and in all regions. An example of such an action would be to involve local women’s organizations as key stakeholders during the formation of a project or programme. This would allow the scope and focus of desired outcomes to be more representative of the women’s needs and ensure the pursuit o f gender equality objectives.
