FAO - Mainstreaming gender into project cycle management in the fisheries sector

This manual has been prepared to facilitate gender analysis and project planning in fisheries development projects. It is intended to be a toolkit to help project managers and implementing counterparts (such as extensionists, government and non-government field workers, and private- and public-sector development consultants, community organizers and leaders of local groups), to facilitate the integration of gender issues into the project cycle. The handbook includes: Chapter one: provides the rationale, concepts and approaches relative to mainstreaming gender equality into development cooperation. Chapter two: presents an overview of the role of women in the fisheries sector in Southeast Asia, the problems they face and possible empowerment opportunities. Chapter three: provides tools for gender analysis in fisheries development projects and guidance on gender sensitive indicators. Chapter four: provides the link for mainstreaming gender at various stages of the project cycle.
