๐ Bridging Policy & Practice: A Practical Guide for Ministries
This practical and comprehensive guide, which I’ve developed in collaboration with Elbarlament and funded by GIZ, provides trainers in Iraqโs governmental institutions with essential knowledge and tools to implement the Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) agenda aligned with UNSCR 1325. This Training of Trainers (ToT) guide is a comprehensive resource designed for government officials in Iraqโs Ministries of Defense, Interior, Justice, and Labor & Social Affairs to strengthen their capacity on Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) in alignment with UNSCR 1325 and Iraqโs Second National Action Plan (NAP 2).
Developed through months of research, consultation, and expert input, the guide:
โ Equips trainers with the tools to design and implement gender-sensitive training.
โ Enhances cross-ministerial coordination on WPS-related policies.
โ Provides interactive learning materials, exercises, and monitoring tools to support effective implementation.
