  • Gender Center and Gender Mainstreaming

    Gender Center and Gender Mainstreaming

    Gender Center and Gender Mainstreaming Educational level: University | Beneficiaries: Students, faculty, and staff Background Assessments of universities such as Jimma University1 and the University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM)2 that found sexual harassment and violence and high attrition of female students played a role in developing gender centers.1 At the University of Western Cape, campus activism on issues including gender imbalances in salary and career development, sexual harassment, and maternity leave and child care contributed to the creation of a gender center.3 In other institutions, national and institutional commitment was key. For example, one of the objectives of the Presidential Working Party to establish Moi University was to develop a gender center, and the university’s 2005-2014 strategic plan committed to incorporating gender issues in policy decision-making processes.4 Makerere University also enjoyed a supportive national legislative environment in Uganda.5 Description Many institutions, including Jimma University, Moi University, UDSM, and Makerere University, note the role of the gender centers in promoting gender mainstreaming. The gender centers, offices, and committees at the institutions included in this review shared some common functions, including gender equality-related policy development, provision of training, skills-building, mentoring, counseling services, networking, information sharing, and research. Some institutions also provide scholarships to female students (Jimma University,6 Makerere University,5 University of Toronto7); facilitate housing for female faculty (Jimma University,6 University of Western Cape3); develop curricula on gender-related issues (the University of Ghana8); and develop proposals for “gender sensitive infrastructure within the University”9 (Sokoine University of Agriculture). The University of Toronto has multiple offices that work on diversity and equity issues.

    A Report on the Mapping Study of Peace & Security Engagement In

    A Report on the Mapping Study of Peace & Security Engagement in African Tertiary Institutions Written by Funmi E. Vogt This project was funded through the support of the Carnegie Corporation About the African Leadership Centre In July 2008, King’s College London through the Conflict, Security and Development group (CSDG), established the African Leadership Centre (ALC). In June 2010, the ALC was officially launched in Nairobi, Kenya, as a joint initiative of King’s College London and the University of Nairobi. The ALC aims to build the next generation of scholars and analysts on peace, security and development. The idea of an African Leadership Centre was conceived to generate innovative ways to address some of the challenges faced on the African continent, by a new generation of “home‐grown” talent. The ALC provides mentoring to the next generation of African leaders and facilitates their participation in national, regional and international efforts to achieve transformative change in Africa, and is guided by the following principles: a) To foster African‐led ideas and processes of change b) To encourage diversity in terms of gender, region, class and beliefs c) To provide the right environment for independent thinking d) Recognition of youth agency e) Pursuit of excellence f) Integrity The African Leadership Centre mentors young Africans with the potential to lead innovative change in their communities, countries and across the continent. The Centre links academia and the real world of policy and practice, and aims to build a network of people who are committed to the issue of Peace and Security on the continent of Africa.

    Preservice Laboratory Education Strengthening Enhances

    Fonjungo et al. Human Resources for Health 2013, 11:56 http://www.human-resources-health.com/content/11/1/56 RESEARCH Open Access Preservice laboratory education strengthening enhances sustainable laboratory workforce in Ethiopia Peter N Fonjungo1,8*, Yenew Kebede1, Wendy Arneson2, Derese Tefera1, Kedir Yimer1, Samuel Kinde3, Meseret Alem4, Waqtola Cheneke5, Habtamu Mitiku6, Endale Tadesse7, Aster Tsegaye3 and Thomas Kenyon1 Abstract Background: There is a severe healthcare workforce shortage in sub Saharan Africa, which threatens achieving the Millennium Development Goals and attaining an AIDS-free generation. The strength of a healthcare system depends on the skills, competencies, values and availability of its workforce. A well-trained and competent laboratory technologist ensures accurate and reliable results for use in prevention, diagnosis, care and treatment of diseases. Methods: An assessment of existing preservice education of five medical laboratory schools, followed by remedial intervention and monitoring was conducted. The remedial interventions included 1) standardizing curriculum and implementation; 2) training faculty staff on pedagogical methods and quality management systems; 3) providing teaching materials; and 4) procuring equipment for teaching laboratories to provide practical skills to complement didactic education. Results: A total of 2,230 undergraduate students from the five universities benefitted from the standardized curriculum. University of Gondar accounted for 252 of 2,230 (11.3%) of the students, Addis Ababa University for 663 (29.7%), Jimma University for 649 (29.1%), Haramaya University for 429 (19.2%) and Hawassa University for 237 (10.6%) of the students. Together the universities graduated 388 and 312 laboratory technologists in 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 academic year, respectively.

    Annual Report 2001/2002

    ANNUAL REPORT 2001/2002 Friends ofMakerere in Canada (FOMAC) is pleased to submit its report for the fiscal year 2001 / 2002. Over the past ten years, it has been the pleasure of FOMAC to work with its partners: Makerere University Kampala , Mbarara University of Science and Technology, both in Uganda, and St. Joseph's Healthcare System in Hamilton, Ontario. We have also benefited immensely from our association with the University of Manitoba, McMaster University and from many individuals in the academic, business, government and the voluntary sector both in Canada and around the world. We thank them all. We have tried to ensure that our policies and programmes are inclusive and reflect the diverse groups with which we share a vision and goals. We recognize that the success and sustainability of a project such as ours depends to a large measure on positive collaboration with other groups. We have therefore interacted with these groups in order to build relationships that are constructive and are likely to endure. In common with other voluntary and non-profit organizations, FOMAC currently faces serious funding challenges. As this report will show, one major event was held during the report period, partly to celebrate the tenth anniversary and partly to raise funds. We need more funding opportunities in order to strengthen this organization and to meet its long-term program objectives. We welcome ideas on possible new initiatives as well as direct financial contributions. We plead to everyone to help us convert the present challenges into new opportunities to build and sustain solutions for FOMAC and Makerere.
