    "Current Situation in Gender Training"

    The First Virtual Dialogue addressed the "Current Situation in Gender Training"  and took place from September 22nd to October 28th, 2008.
     
    To be effective, gender training should involve senior management:               
    “Often the gender training audience consists of staff in lower management positions and it is crucial that more senior management attend trainings to ensure gender sensitivity within institutions.” 
    This is one of the main results of the Virtual Dialogue, hosted by UN-INSTRAW in October 2008.
