Gender perspectives and gender-aware teaching shall have a prominent place in the qualifying training in higher education teaching and learning.
The development work to implement an integrated gender and intersectional perspective in teaching and education will be intensified.
Women's equal access to productive and financial resources is critical for their empowerment and sustainable and inclusive growth and development. TSUL will ensure that its programmes facilitate equitable access to financial and technical resources and services for all women, regardless of age, disability status, ethnicity, socio-economic status, geographical area or any other condition.
TSUL is intended to achieve three main goals among females:
- Reduce gender disparities in access to, control over and benefit from resources, wealth, opportunities, and services – economic, social, political, and cultural.
- Reduce gender-based violence and mitigate its harmful effects on individuals and communities, so that all people can live healthy and productive lives.
- Increase capability of women and girls to realize their rights, determine their life outcomes, and influence decision-making in households, communities, and societies.
Gender equality and female empowerment are essential for achieving our development goals. Unless both women and men are able to attain their social, economic and political aspirations, and contribute to and shape decisions about the future, the global community will not successfully promote peace and prosperity.
Realizing this policy in all of the countries in which we work to be a catalytic force for gender equality and women's empowerment worldwide and bring to fruition the vision of a world in which all people are equally empowered to secure better lives for themselves, their families, and their communities.
