Resources

Our training materials can be used to introduce a broad range of audiences and backgrounds to important concepts related to gender and health. Each training course focuses on one of five themes that complement the CORE Gender 101 agenda: Gender Integration, HIV + Sexuality, Safe Motherhood, Gender-Based Violence, and Constructive Male Engagement. The courses are designed to meet the geographic and technical needs of cooperating agencies, USAID Missions, and specific projects. Materials range from basics such as using a shared gender vocabulary and programmatic guidance, to user guides on how to conduct a gender analysis, to exercises for gender trainings. The trainings are geared to be used by anyone and with any audience, even those learning about gender for the first time!

Our popular Gender Integration Continuum framework is an important tool to assess how programs do (or do not) address gender and move them toward more gender-transformative actions. An updated User’s Guide for facilitating training on use of the continuum is available, along with other materials.

    What Does CARE Mean When We Say, “We Put Gender at the Center?”

    externally hosted at CARE

    This blog explores CARE’s work to address the root causes of poverty and inequality—the underlying reasons why women are unable to show up, have their voices heard, or influence the changes they need so they can secure a better future. To do this, CARE is letting women and girls’ set priorities, centering gender in all projects, integrating gender in policy and process decisions, and providing funding and resources to grassroots women-led organizations.
