Hi Pete
If we don't have the information, we don't know if it's an issue..so we
should start by getting some information.....then it's a matter of what type
of information is useful....if by gender you mean women, I'm starting with
women's experiences...but that doesn't mean gender isn't an issue for men...
how many women contribute to this list?
Linda

One question that might be asked is why do we want this information? Is it
purely to describe what is going on. what evidence do we have that gender is
an issue in our industry?

In addition to your question re the gender ratios participating in outdoor
education (to which I don't know the answer!) I was just wondering whether
anyone knew of anywhere where there were figures of the gender ratios for
those actually leading or working on outdoor education programmes? Due to
the diversity of OE it's not easy to know, but maybe there are some figures
re outdoor education centres?
