Maximizing the benefits of training engineers about gender
conference contribution
posted on 2018-02-12, 15:09 authored by Brian Reed, Sue CoatesGender is an important aspect of multidisciplinary provision of water and environmental sanitation services; however it
is not just the responsibility of social scientists, but the whole team. Training engineers about gender has been difficult,
or even not attempted due to perceived professional boundaries, but a research project looking into ways gender can be
“mainstreamed” into infrastructure development has produced a new way of getting the message across to a technical
audience. This however may be in a form that social scientists may not recognize.
