The ILO Participatory Gender Audit (PGA) is a powerful tool for introducing and managing institutional change. It is a participatory method of promoting institutional learning and reinforcing an organization's collective capacity to analyse its activities from a gender perspective, verifying its achievements and deficiencies. The PGA Certification Progamme is a transformative learning process that yields knowledge, techniques and tools to certifiy gender-sensitive analitical skills. The ultimate goal is to raise institutional awareness on gender issues in order to promote a change in attitudes and behaviour from within. https://youtu.be/-JIquiIcPNU
