Capacity building on gender equity in the water sector covers almost all water sub-sectors. However, capacity building to enable equality and equity between women and men requires initiatives to focus on both – women and men, as well as women-only constituencies. This paper provides a brief review of capacity-building materials on gender and water. It identifies the production of guides, manuals and checklists as the dominant materials which encompass multiple functions, such as for information sharing, education, advocacy, and as lobbying instruments. The paper identifies resource materials on specific subjects and those geared to particular population groups. It also briefly profiles some water-sector organizations specifically working on building capacity on gender equity as well as organizations that also focus on women’s groups and women and men in communities. Capacity-building materials on gender equity in the water sub-sectors are identified for a range of sub-sectors as well as for institutional change processes. Some closing comments offer a reflection on the experience of gender training and provide recommendations for strengthening capacity building on gender equity in the water sector.
