Do you need assistance in mainstreaming gender and development (GAD) in cooperatives? You can now directly contact GAD trainers/experts across the Philippines to help you. Go to the “Gender and Development [GAD] in Co-ops Resource Pool (GCRP)” Directory available here in the website of the GERC Inc.
The GCRP Directory contains the list of “GCRP Fellows” who are GAD trainers/experts responsible in expanding GAD outreach to co-ops; and non-government organizations, government agencies, local government units, and other agencies that support GAD and co-op development. These co-ops and other agencies can communicate directly with the GCRP Fellows in this Directory for the services that they need in relation to GAD mainstreaming, such as, but not limited to, conduct of gender-sensitivity training (GST) and other gender sessions; and sustained technical assistance to co-ops for GAD mainstreaming.
Particularly, as trained GAD trainers for co-ops, the GCRP Fellows can assist co-ops in assessing the progress of their GAD mainstreaming using the “GAD Assessment Tool” for co-ops (the Tool as provided for in Cooperative Development Authority [CDA] Memorandum Circular No. 2017-04).
GCRP Fellows come from co-ops nationwide and had previously attended the trainers' training in the gender equality program and/or the trainers’ training on GAD (levels 1 and 2) that GERC Inc. conducts. Some of the GCRP Fellows are also involved in GERC Inc.’s programs on co-op youth and co-op women entrepreneurs.
