Training Manual on Gender Mainstreaming in Health

In 2002 MWIA developed a Training Manual for Gender Mainstreaming in Health, in response to the need of physicians to understand how adding a gender perspective to health and health care could favourably influence the health of women and men.

The Training Manual was used around the world in all eight regions of MWIA to conduct workshops and train physicians in the concepts of gender mainstreaming in health. This has allowed physicians to mainstream gender into their clinical practice, as well as influence those who develop policy and curriculum. The Manual was updated in June 2013.
