collection of official documents and
analysis on financing for gender
equality as well as practical
materials related to fundraising was

Gender Equality and the Empowerment
of Women.'

light of upcoming conferences such
as the Follow-up International
Conference on Financing for
Development to Review the
Implementation of the Monterrey
Consensus, to be held in November in
Doha, IWTC is hosting the collection
on its website to support informed
participation in debates and
discussions around the

While the
collection contains 71 items, the annotated
bibliography is a good starting point as it
contains detailed summaries of all the
resources and articles it contains. If you
are predominantly interested in the
fundamental questions, debates and
discussions around financing for gender
equality, we direct your attention to the
first three sections where you will find
several useful articles,
including:
1.
From
Beijing to Doha: Tracking the Gender
Dimension of Financing for Development and
Gender Equality;
2.
Financing
for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of
Women: Report of the Expert Group
Meeting;
3. and Four
excellent primers from the Association for
Women In Development. (in Section
C)
If
fund-raising is your main focus, Sections
E
and F
will be of particular relevance as they
incorporate guides to fund-raising,
information about donor databases and women's
funds and a complete manual on building
organizational capacity for
NGOs.
