The Local Government Gender Action Plan Manual is a product of the Training of Trainer (TOT) workshop that took place in Johannesburg in November 2007. The workshop brought together representatives of gender and local government ministries, local government authorities and their staff from the four case study countries of the Gender Links (GL) study: At the Coalface, Gender and Local Government. The four countries are Mauritius, Lesotho, South Africa and Namibia.
The Namibia manual is designed as a complement to the Local Government Gender Strategy adopted by the Association of Local Authorities (ALAN) in January 2008 to give effect to the National Gender Policy (1997) at the local level. The manual provides the tools for understanding what gender mainstreaming is; why it is important; and how to go about developing a gender action plan.
The manual draws its inspiration from many sources, including the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC) Toolkit for Decision Makers; the Oxfam Gender Training Manual and the pilot projects on mainstreaming gender in local government conducted by GL with the cities of Johannesburg, eThekwini and Msunduzi over the period 2004-2007 with support from the Mott Foundation.
