is pleased to announce the launch of the Gender and Security Sector Reform Training Resource
Website.
The website is meant to provide a user-friendly, online access to the complete Gender and SSR Training Resource Package, as well as a place
of exchange for all those involved in Gender and SSR Training.
Developed as a companion to the Gender & Security Sector Reform
Toolkit published by DCAF, UN-INSTRAW and OSCE/ODIHR, the Gender and SSR
Training Resource Package is a series of practical training materials to help
trainers to integrate gender into SSR training, and to deliver effective gender
training to security sector audiences.
The Gender and SSR Training Resource Package is designed both for people
providing SSR training, education and capacity building, and for those
delivering gender training to security sector policymakers, practitioners and
personnel. The training resources have been developed to suit a wide range of
training audiences, including Ministries of Defence, Justice, Interior or
Foreign Affairs; security and justice sector institutions; security sector
oversight bodies; parliamentarians; civil society organisations; development
agencies; and international and regional organisations.
The Gender and SSR Training Resource Website provides online access to
the complete Training Resource Package, including:
A guide to taking gender issues into
account throughout the SSR training cycle: in training needs assessment,
learning objectives, design and development of training, implementation,
monitoring, evaluation and follow up
Training resources (key messages, exercises, discussion topics, examples from the ground, and links to
additional resources) on the following
topics:
·
Security Sector Reform and Gender
·
Parliamentary Oversight of the Security Sector and Gender
·
Civil Society Oversight of the Security Sector and Gender
·
National Security Policy-Making and Gender
·
Security Sector Reform Assessment, Monitoring and Evaluation
·
Border Management and Gender
In addition, we have included several features to enable GSSR
professionals to enrich each other by sharing best practices, knowledge and
experiences.
A comment function on each exercise page allows visitors to note their
own experiences in using this exercise
A moderated forum offers space for conversation
and exchange of experiences and advice on good training practices and training
challenges, and to discuss with the editors of the Training Resource Package
Over the coming months, a French version of the website will be
launched; you will then be notified by email.
We hope that you will find the Gender and SSR Training Resource Website
a valuable resource to strengthen your SSR training activities. We would
appreciate any feedback you have on using the resources, and any suggestions
you have for additional training exercises and materials, which could be added
to the Training Resource Website. We invite you to direct any such
contributions through the interactive features of the website.
