The Gender Responsive and Inclusive TEVET Training Course comes against the background of the Gender Equality and Inclusion Analysis of the TEVET System for the Skills and Technical Education Programme (STEP) Malawi. The study revealed the existence of gender disparities in TEVET institutions in Malawi.

The study also revealed lack of knowledge of gender-responsive or inclusive education. This handbook supports the gender responsive pedagogy course, providing key background information and learning points to support a change in how instructors and other players view female participation in the male dominated technical trades, as well as provide instructors with the skills to help them address gender inequalities in TEVET institutions.
