These will be last round of regional events on gender and education as part
of the Gender Agenda. The events will provide an opportunity to discuss the
outcomes from the Gender Agenda activities, including inputs from some of the
teachers who have been carrying out their own gender action research, and to
review its participatory model — i.e. civil servants working in
partnership with researchers to review and share evidence. It will also
attempt to clarify 'What works and what doesn't' when tackling
gender issues in the classroom and to discuss the value of 'Practitioner
research and gender issues'. If you are interested in attending
please contact Victoria White by email.
