Subject: Gender and Disability Mainstreaming Training Manual
Dear colleagues
I am in the process of developing a gender and disability mainstreaming training manual to be used in Africa. If anyone has got relevant information that I could use, including other existing manuals that I could review, I would appreciate that.
Thanks in advance for your assistance
Regards
Tsitsi

Dear Dr. chataika
I have done some research for Plan International about the gender gap in CBR programs that they are executing in Egypt. If you can get in contact with them, I think you can make use of it in you research.
Good luck

UN SPECIAL RAPPORTEUR VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN SEEKS INPUT FOR REPORT ON DUE DILIGENCE & VAW
The 2013 annual report of the Special Rapporteur on Violence against Women, its Causes and Consequences, Ms Rashida Manjoo, will be devoted to a study on the "Due Diligence Obligation to address Violence Against Women."
The Special Rapporteur is seeking information in preparation of a global study that analyses the interpretation and implementation of the due diligence obligation by States to be submitted to the Human Rights Council.
Article 4 (c and d) of the UN Declaration on Elimination of Violence against Women requires States to ‘exercise due diligence to prevent, investigate and in accordance with national legislation punish acts of violence against women whether those actions are perpetrated by the State or private persons.’ The Convention on Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women and the work of the Committee reiterates the need for states to take appropriate measures to ensure women are free from all forms of violence. To achieve this, States must develop penal, civil, labour and administrative sanctions in domestic legislation to punish and redress the wrongs caused to women who are subjected to violence. Thus a state not only has a negative obligation to refrain from acts of violence against women, but also has positive duties to prevent and protect women from violence, punish perpetrators and compensate victims of violence. Due to the multiplicity of forms of violence against women, and the fact that this violence often occurs in an intersectional manner, States must adopt more holistic, multi-pronged approaches to effectively implementing their due diligence obligations. State interventions must also be designed at the different levels at which violence occurs, namely at the individual, community, State and transnational levels. The state may be held responsible under international law for the failure to provide reasonable and adequate measures to prevent or address the violations of women’s rights. In essence, due diligence provides a standard of care used to measure whether a state has complied with its international obligations. A determination of compliance will require an assessment of the adequacy of the domestic measures in the state.
The mandate has consistently paid attention to the principle of due diligence over the last seventeen (17) years and is keen to further the discussion and compile emerging practices that have the potential to reach the common goal of elimination of all forms of violence against women.
The Special Rapporteur notes that various individuals and organisations may wish to develop documents and reports of consultations to submit for consideration. In accordance with the established practice of mandate-holders, the Special Rapporteur welcomes all relevant submissions that NGO’s and other independent experts may wish to transmit for her consideration in preparation of the annual report on due diligence. The Special Rapporteur is particularly interested in receiving submission on specific country situations. These submissions should be sent by 31 October 2012 to [log in to unmask]
Kindly note that the Special Rapporteur will, in due course, provide a detailed plan for the process she will follow in generating the annual report.

D.N.I.S. News Network, India: Disabled People's International, the world's only cross-disability global organisation of people with disabilities with membership in around 140 countries, has launched a Global Women's Network and a Global Youth Network to focus on issues that women and youth with disabilities face and to groom leaders to contribute to the global disability movement.
Under the Global Women Network, there are two aspects: 'Established Leaders'
and 'Emerging Young Leader'. The Global Women Network is being headed by Rachel Kachaje, Vice-Chairperson of D.P.I. Abia Akram, a young leader from Pakistan, has been appointed as the Global Coordinator of the Emerging Young Women Leader Network. Ganesh Singh of Guyana has been appointed as the Coordinator of the Global Youth Network.
Launching the Networks, Javed Abidi, Chairperson of D.P.I. said, "Youth are our future. We have to encourage them; bring them forward, to the forefront.
They must be associated in all aspects of D.P.I.'s work. And when we talk of youth with disabilities, we cannot leave our young women with disabilities behind. They must be at the forefront too, shoulder to shoulder. This is the Mission that Ganesh and Abia will take forward."
Both these Networks will have a global reach across the 5 Regions that D.P.I. currently has offices in: Asia-Pacific, Africa, Europe, Latin America and North America & Caribbean.
