Gender equality is both a goal and a prerequisite for sustainable peace and development. FBA’s Gender-Responsive Leadership (GRL) Initiative is designed to support leaders and managers within organizations such as the EU, UN, ECOWAS, OSCE and the African Union to fulfill their central role in enabling gender equal peace, security and development work.
This Handbook is part of FBA’s initiative on gender-responsive leadership. It is designed to be used alongside other FBA resources on gender-responsive leadership, including a Participant Workbook, Facilitator Guide, short films, and other capacity-building material. These can be found at www.fba.se/grl.
