This brief reports on the delivery of a training package for capacity development on gender integration and enhancing women’s participation in energy, environment and climate initiatives in refugee settings in Uganda. The content of capacity development material was informed by studies in gender analysis and capacity needs assessments conducted by ICRAF and partners in the Reducing Environmental Degradation in the Refugee Context (RED) project, implemented in five refugee hosting districts: Adjumani, Kiryandongo, Madi-Okollo, Terego and Yumbe. During the research phase, key informant interviews and focus group discussions were conducted. These targeted engagement and consultations with district and sub-county level government technicians, political leaders and other stakeholders, including representatives from the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM), the private sector, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), community-based organizations (CBOs), refugee welfare councils (RWCs), and vulnerable groups (including people living with disabilities (PWD), young people and the elderly).
