Democracy for Development (D4D) in cooperation with Peer Educators Network (PEN) organized a Gender Perspective workshop as a tool for expanding membership in order to increase the capacity of individuals and associations to identify ways to make a Gender responsible profile of associations.

During the workshop an open discussion was held with the participants on the advantages of including gender perspectives in their activities and participants exchanged experiences on the organizational structure of their associations in this regard.

Associations, during the discussion on the insufficient involvement of women in society, expressed that this is a result of the lack of will and courage by themselves to participate in decision-making positions.
