[Julie Newton]

Dear Colleagues,

 We have some exciting news!

 KIT (Royal Tropical Institute) together with the UN Women Training Centre are thrilled to announce that applications for the Professional Development Programme for Gender Trainers are open. The programme will begin in February 2022. Applications are open until the 21^st of November this year.

 Are you a gender professional who wants to strengthen your gender training skills? Do you want to embed feminist principles into your gender training to reclaim training as a feminist process; and learn and co-create gender knowledge with a group of passionate and committed gender professionals from across the world? Then this is the programme for you!

 Ready to get inspired?  Listen to this quick video snippet of PDPGT alumni who finished the course last year: https://youtu.be/K8PK8RD0vjE

 The 6-month hybrid programme focuses on gender trainers and gender professionals who are doing gender training. The programme aims to:

 

• Sharpen training skills and knowledge of gender and development concepts as a gender equality trainer
• Enable participants to better employ learning and knowledge strategies
• Support participants to reclaim training for gender equality as a political feminist process
• Renew participants as gender equality trainers and their commitment to gender training as a transformative process.
