In development, gender justice means that girls and boys, women and men, have equal opportunity to benefit from community projects, equal access to community resources, equal opportunity to make community decisions and equal opportunity to develop their talents.
Working for lasting gender justice involves activities that dig deep into relationships between men and women at home, at work, and in the church. Discussions about the gender roles can be difficult, as they often include sensitive topics and issues of debate. This is why World Renew staff members are trained to create a space where both men and women feel safe to share their experiences and opinions as they work together for reconciliation.
In Uganda, World Renew staff recently led a “Going deeper for gender justice“ training program for men and won in Kabale and Nebbi.
Join World Renew in helping ensure that both men and women are supported, encouraged, and enabled to fulfill their God-given potential!
