Beijing+25 and training for gender equality. Virtual dialogue report.
UN WOMEN Training Centre
2020
The 15th Virtual Dialogue hosted by the UN Women Training Centre’s Community of Practice on "Beijing+25 and Training for Gender Equality" explored why training for gender equality matters more than ever as we mark 25 years since the Beijing Platform for Action, and how we can use training for gender equality to elicit the change needed to address the unfinished business of Beijing. Given the expertise of the Virtual Dialogue Webinar panellists, this report looks at training for gender equality in the cross-cutting area of gender statistics, and two of the Beijing Platform for Action’s 12 critical areas of concern: violence against women, and women and the environment. The report sheds light on how training can be used to advance pathways for change in areas key to the PFA, and highlights ways forward to expand transformative training to respond to real needs on the ground.
