OSSREA has launched a special research project entitled ‘Integrating Gender Issues in Multidisciplinary Research in Eastern and Southern Africa.’ This project is fully financed by NORAD and was expected to be completed from 2010 – 2012. The general objectives of this special research project are to: a) enhance the capacity of scholars and experts in government and CSOs to design, implement, assess, evaluate and monitor development programmes from a gender perspective; b) to conduct research, produce and disseminate knowledge on the link between emerging gender issues and government propoor policies, natural resource development, customary and statutory laws, social protection, health, HIV/AIDS etc.; and c) to develop teaching and reference manuals to understand and analyze various gender related issues in tertiary educational institutions. OSSREA has launched the following three main projects under this special research project on gender. Insights into Gender Equity, Equality and Power Relations in sub-Saharan Africa’ intended to examine, inter alia, gender and economic empowerment and pro-poor growth strategies, policies and programmes; gender equity and equality and national resources management; constitutional and legal frameworks and their impact on gender power relations, equity and equality; gender equity, equality and national resources management; structures of gender inequity and inequality in arenas of production – farms, firms, factories, forests etc.; gender aspects of birth, life, health and death; and gender issues in social services delivery especially in health, education, energy and environmental management.

This project is expected to address the dire need for teaching materials in higher institutions across Africa running post graduate programs in gender studies. The teaching materials are expected to be focused on gender issues in economic growth and poverty reduction; vulnerability and social protection; agriculture and natural resources; policy reforms and the re-alignment of gender relations; political and cultural issues in Gender; Gender and population dynamics; and gender mainstreaming in various sectors (health, education, environment, energy etc.).
