2．Outline of BRIDE
In the case that promoting girls education in countries where the gender gap is especially extreme in primary education attendance, what approaches are possible, and what needs to be taken into consideration? This material uses the example of the Broadening Regional Initiative for Developing Girls Education (BRIDGE) Program in Taiz in Yemen to introduce gender mainstreaming in the field of education.
The project was managed to ascertain the situation in each school by Taiz Education office s Director for Girls Education and took a number of activities in consideration of Yemen traditions and customs, such as using religious messages, carrying out meeting with fathers and with mothers, enhancing residents understanding of girls education through the empowerment of mothers and improving the school environment by constructing separate boys and girls toilets. The project helped improve the school attendance of both boys and girls, as well as changing attitudes of residents in the area. This material carefully sets out the lessons to be taken away from this project, and how they can be adapted.
This material, A Good Practice of Gender Mainstreaming for Project Management ~Girls Education in Yemen~, is planned and directed by Gender Equality Division, Public Policy Department, in corporation with Basic Education Division 1, Human Development Department, under the management of JICA-Net Team, Economic Infrastructure Department.
