MAGENDA aims to support Asian HEIs in introducing and enforcing policies that promote gender equality at institutional level. This requires the transfer of ‘know-how’ in establishing and implementing GEPs through a holistic approach targeting, first, HEI staff by involving them in capacity building trainings, and second, HEI students by gaging their interest in leading awareness raising actions. In addition, the project aspires to build synergies with civil society and policy stakeholders at local and national levels to create a multiplier effect and yield systemic change.
