Day 2 (i) elaborate on gender inequalities linked to systemic and structural issues in the transport sector; (ii) share gender design entry points that will lead to inclusive and sustainable transport policies and project outcomes; (iii) showcase ADB project examples that have brought or expected to bring transformative change in women’s lives; and (iv) provide an opportunity to put new knowledge into practice with interactive exercises in a virtual setting.

The 4-day gender training is targeted at staff in ADB HQ Sector Divisions and Resident Mission Operations Departments to ensure a better understanding of key gender issues and possible gender entry points in three infrastructure sectors: transport; water; and energy. Participants will learn from experts and peer exchange of project experiences on good practices on gender. Participants will also increase their knowledge of ADB’s gender categorization system and related requirements in the project cycle through background reading and plenary discussion.
