» Gender-responsive education: Toolkit for Teachers, Teacher Educators, School Managers and Curriculum Developers in Africa

Comments: whilst more geared to general education and to Africa, there is a lot of general information especially for educators who may not be used to teaching women and girls.

» Practical Guide for WITED (Women in Technical Education) and Individual Champions for increasing girls’ and women’s participation in STEM-TVET

Comments: designed by the Commonwealth of Learning to create a self-assessment tool for VET providers to assess how appropriate and geared their provision is for women and girls. Has some useful score sheets and recommendations for action.
