This guide serves as a comprehensive and practical
tool to help project managers, gender specialists and researchers

parts: (1) An introduction and overview notes on gender mainstreaming
in integrated water resources management; (2) An annotated guide bringing
together a wide range of existing tools and materials on domestic
water supply, sanitation, hygiene, irrigation, coastal zone management,
and fisheries; (3) Briefing notes on bringing a gender perspective
to water sector capacity building, equality between women and men,
and institutional capacity to promote gender in integrated water resources
management projects; (4) Case studies and good practices from around
the globe; (5) A guide to gender mainstreaming within the project
cycle, with suggestions of how to tackle issues at each stage.
