Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together various threads of research in the field of gender mainstreaming. It aids in further supporting and understanding the role of gender in health and safety research, practice, and policy. It looks at gender mainstreaming as being recognised as key in cultivating sustainable worker health and working systems due to it being a central component of many international policy initiatives. This book deals with gender mainstreaming being advocated at a policy level, while focusing on the limited recognition and discourse on the issue of gender and its direct and indirect association to workers’ health in the field of occupational health and safety. This book addresses problems facing gender-sensitive policies and outlines and reflects upon current best practice principles and practices to support the development and implementation of policies, interventions, and research initiatives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender planning is not an end in itself but a means by which women, through a process of empowerment, can emancipate themselves. Ultimately, its success depends on the capacity of women's organizations to confront subordination and create successful alliances which will provide constructive support in negotiating women's needs at the level of household, civil society, the state and the global system. Gender Planning and Development provides an introduction to an issue of primary importance and constant debate.

This book was released on 2022-07-19 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The WHE Gender Mainstreaming Strategy (2022-2026) aims to provide guidance on how to systemically analyze and address relevant gender issues across WHE policies and programmes, to enable WHE work to contribute to gender equity and equality, which in turn will strengthen health emergency programming at all levels. It also provides strategic direction to facilitate how WHE can respond to the specific gender-based needs and risks that women, men, girls and boys and people with diverse gender identities experience as a consequence of health emergencies, in ways that improve the design and delivery of WHE policies and programmes, and contribute to reducing gender-inequalities including morbidity and mortality but also the medium and long term socio-economic effects of emergencies. This strategy is intended to guide WHE programming across the local, national, regional and global levels. It was developed by the WHE Gender Working Group, and responds to specific recommendations included in the WHA Resolution 74.7 on Strengthening WHO Preparedness for and response to health emergencies[1], among other key documents.

This book was released on 2020-06-12 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globally, women are facing social, economic, and cultural barriers impeding their autonomy and agency. Accelerated women empowerment programs often fail to attain their targets as envisaged by the policymakers due to a variety of reasons, with the most prominent being the deep-rooted cultural norms ingrained within society. In the era of globalization, empowerment of women demands new approaches and strategies that encourage the mainstreaming of gender equality as a societal norm. The Handbook of Research on New Dimensions of Gender Mainstreaming and Women Empowerment is a critical scholarly publication that examines global gender issues and new strategies for the promotion of women empowerment and gender mainstreaming in various spheres of women’s lives, including education and ICT, economic participation, health and sexuality, mental health, aging, law and judiciary, leadership, and decision making. It provides a comprehensive coverage of all major gender issues with novel ideas on gender mainstreaming being contributed by men and women authors from multidisciplinary backgrounds. Gender perspective and intersectional approach in the discourses make this handbook a unique contribution to the scholarship of social sciences and humanities. The book provides new theoretical inputs and practical directions to academicians, sociologists, social workers, psychologists, managers, lawyers, policy makers, and government officials in their efforts at gender mainstreaming. With a wide range of conceptual richness, this handbook is an excellent reference guide to students and researchers in programs pertaining to gender/women's studies, cultural studies, economics, sociology, social work, medicine, law, and management.

Book excerpt: This document explains the need for mainstreaming of gender across the core principles and strategic priorities of Immunization Agenda 2030 (IA2030). Its purpose is two-fold: 1. To improve awareness and understanding of how gender-related barriers can affect immunization programme performance; and 2. To provide practical “how to” concepts, tools/methods, and actions that can be used to effectively integrate a gender perspective into immunization programmes. The target audience is everyone engaged with supporting, managing or implementing immunization programmes – managers and service providers, as well as the staff of Ministries of Health and other sectors (e.g. Ministry of Education, Ministry of Gender, Ministry of Finance), civil society, international organizations, and donor partners involved in realizing the IA2030 vision of a world where everyone, at every age fully benefits from vaccines for good health and well-being.

Download or read book Masculinities, Gender Equality and Crisis Management written by Mathias Ericson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-07-22 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overarching mission of the rescue services comprises three main areas of responsibility: protection against disasters and accidents; crisis management; and civil defence. This mission covers a long chain of obligations in trying to improve societal prevention capabilities and manage threats, risks, accidents, and disasters concerning generic as well as individual safety. It follows a reactive social chain of threat-risk-crisis-crisis management-care-rehabilitation. The authors in this book show that the interesting occupational characteristics of these societal duties are their connection to gender and crisis management in a wider sense. Gendered practices, processes, identities, and symbols are analytical lenses that provide a particular understanding and explanatory base that has received far too little attention in the academic literature. This book identifies four major themes in relation to a gendered understanding of the rescue services, and more generally emergency work: Masculine heroism Intersectional understandings of sexuality, class, and race Gender and technology Gender equality and mainstreaming processes This book shows how the rescue services constitute a productive ground for contemporary gender studies, including feminist theory, masculinity and sexuality studies. Its critical perspective provides new directions for emergency work and crisis management in a broader sense, and in particular for scholars and practitioners in these areas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gender mainstreaming is the current international approach to promoting equality between women and men.It is based on the recognition that gender inequality operates at all levels and in all sectors of society, and thus needs to be addressed in the mainstream. It aims to ensure that women and men benefit equitably from all that society has to offer, and are equally empowered to affect its governance and decisions.The Gender Management System (GMS) is a holistic and system-wide approach to gender mainstreaming developed by the Commonwealth, for the use of governments in partnership with other stakeholders including civil society and the private sector. The GMS is a comprehensive network of structures, mechanisms and processes to enable governments and other organisations to contribute to gender equality through all policy-making, planning and activities.This Quick Guide has been produced to assist governments and other stakeholders using gender-sensitive indicators in the context of gender mainstreaming. It is an abridged version of the GMS publication Using Gender-Sensitive Indicators: A Reference Manual for Governments and Other Stakeholders.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fourth World Conference on Women, Beijing, 1995, embraced gender mainstreaming as a viable strategy to tackle the multifaceted drivers of gender inequality. In-line with this the Government of Ethiopia adopted mainstreaming approaches in the different sectoral ministries, internal processes, programs and projects, supported by the Ethiopiau2019s National Policy on Women (u201cWomenu2019s Policyu201d), formulated in 1993, and formulation of a Gender Directorate in 2008, under the Federal Ministry of Health (FMOH). However, in terms of pursuing and implementing gender mainstreaming, many countries, including Ethiopia faced challenges due to lack of conceptual clarity and technical tools on how to mainstream gender, monitor, and evaluate progress. Despite efforts made by the Ethiopian health sector to set-up an institutional structure and allocate staff and budget for gender mainstreaming, the process was not based on clear direction and agreed terms with each of the internal departments and processes with in the Ministry. To address these challenges Pathfinder International Ethiopia, in close partnership with the Ethiopia FMOH, initiated technical and advocacy efforts to support development of FMOH gender mainstreaming strategy and policies and ensure they are understood and operationalized. Pathfinder International Ethiopia developed a Gender Mainstreaming Training Manual and trained health managers and providers on conducting gender analysis and mainstreaming gender at all levels. Pathfinder actively advocated with the MOHu2019s Women and Youth Affairs Directorate to develop a standard national guideline for gender mainstreaming. As a result of this advocacy, policy, and training support the MOH initiated a technical working group to articulate the gender related gaps and opportunities across the six building blocks of the health system. Gender issues were identified in each block, required interventions were designed, a monitoring and evaluation framework was established in collaboration with key stakeholders leading the health system and service delivery. Specific checklists were developed identifying roles and responsibilities of each unit to increase accountability in closing gender gaps. This process finally yielded the development of the Ethiopian Health Sector Gender Mainstreaming Manual, which set the bar for gender integration work high and laid an example for other sectors to do the same.

Book excerpt: Women represent the majority of people working to improve health outcomes in communities, non-governmental and multilateral organizations, both as paid and unpaid health and social care workers.
