3rd Edition of the Specialized Course
The participation on the 3rd Edition of the Specialized Course on Gender Equality enriched me deeply professionally and personally. As a superior technician of a local municipality, the knowledge acquired through this course is a valuable tool for the designing of the action plans and documents adequate to the local context, which promote gender equality in every domain of action of the municipality. On a personal level, it was wonderful to share this learning experience with such qualified professors and amazing classmates from diverse backgrounds, professionally, academically and geographically.

The participation on the 3rd Edition of the Specialized Course was highly enriching both on a personal and professional level. This course happened to not only contribute to entrench the knowledge on gender equality I already had but also to estimulate my capacity for reflection, argumentation and critical analysis. I would like to emphasize the earnest and level of professional experience of the academic staff and board, which was relentless when it came to clarify any questions as well as in providing complementary information. The multidisciplinary group of students, who came from various professional areas, was deeply advantageous, with the professors and trainers incentivating the debate and sharing of ideas and experiences among the group. As a woman, citizen, feminist and communication professional, I recommend this specialized course to everyone who as any interest in deepening knowledge on this issues.

I would like to congratulate CIEG on the organization of this course, which surpassed my expecations. It was very estimulating to reflect and rethink gender equality from various approachs, discussing and questioning this issues with an academic staff of excelence. Being able to articulate the knowledge acquired in this course with the things I work with on a daily basis was a significantly positive point. I recommend this specialized course, not only as a professional added value, but also due to the serious and solidate teaching, which promotes critical thinking and strengthens the activist fight for equality of rights.

The Specialized Course on Gender Equality add to reinforce base knowledge for my intervention as technician of the Centro de Cultura e Intervenção Feminista da UMAR. On a personal level, the certification by ISCSP-iFOR adds value to my CV, and as an activist it is always of importance to reconcile learning/research wih action in order to promote Gender Equality.

As a technician in a public entity for policies on equality, with 15 years of experience in the equality area, I enroled in CIEG's specialized course with little expectations, thinking I wouldn't learn (almost) nothing new. I couldn't be more mistaken. Reflecting and debating with dis group of professors/trainers and classmates was a highly gratifying and enriching experience. The greatest learning I take is that there is not a virtual reality nor digital library that substitutes the exchange of experiences in an academic context. If I could I would do a course like this every year. Thank you CIEG.

It was with great satisfation that I took part of the 1st Edition of the Specialized Course on Gender Equality, organized by ISCSP-iFOR and with the support of CIEG.
Through the discussion of various issues, from discrimination to gender violence, from traffic to sexual exploration, from sexual harrassment to work valorization, from feminine genital mutilation to early marriage, from participation to women's lidership in every level of decision making, and other themes; the 1st Edition of the Specialized Course promoted the comprehension and discussion of these issues, according to the various experiences and contexts of the participants.
It represented an important tool for the awarness of the role each one can offer, be it in an individual or institution level, in order to promote the accomplishment of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, aiming at a just and developed society.
A big thank you to ISCSP, for the iniciative, to Professor Anália Torres, Professor Dália Costa, to the trainers and the students of the 1st Edition of the Specialized Course!
