	1. Training Programmes and Workshops We design and facilitate training programmes that enable individuals and communities to take charge of their own lives, while respecting and cooperating with others who may be of different gender, race, sexuality or social position. We offer consciousness-raising workshops that transform victimhood and violence into agency and power, hatred into compassion and fear into united action.

It is encouraging and inspiring to see your work and I'm sure that many women are encouraged to work for peace by you.

Your website is fantastic. I have printed your article on gender based violence and HIV/AIDS for my students.

What encouraging objectives! What encouraging women and men working in the context of your NGO " Engender "! I am fascinated by … the important work you do, which I will always support as much as I can. … Engender can be ensured of my utmost respect and support!

Regine Mehl, Peace Research Information Unit, Germany

This is a great forum for issues that have so long been neglected and glossed over. As gay man and Priest, I am especially happy to see the integration of gender-related matters in a forum such as this. I am hoping that other like-minded clergy…will participate in this forum and work for greater understanding in matters that are often seen to be "hypo-normative". Well done!
