It has been underlined in the Principle No. 3 of the '''Dublin principles (1992)''' that :
'' '''“Women play a central part in the provision, management and safeguarding of water'''.
''This pivotal role of women as providers and users of water and guardians of the living environment has seldom been reflected in institutional arrangements for the development and management of water resources. Acceptance and implementation of this principle require positive policies to address women’s specific needs and to equip and empower women to participate at all levels in water resources programmes, including decision-making and implementation, in ways defined by them"''.

 GTZ, 1998. Gender Training Tool Kit. Self-help Fund Project. This toolkit provides guidelines for participatory gender sensitisation training, outlining key concepts in raising gender awareness. The premise upon which the guidelines are based is experiential learning. The toolkit incorporates different techniques, exercises, and games, often utilising handouts, and prompts people to learn by analysing and reflecting on their experience. It includes tools for gender sensitisation, and for gender sensitive project planning. Available at: http://www.siyanda.org/docs_genie/gtz/Gen.trng.fin.doc  UNDP, (no date). Gender Mainstreaming Learning and Information Packs .Although these Information Packs are meant to be resources for self-training, and for use in workshop situations devoted to gender mainstreaming, they can also be incorporated into workshops on other topics, to strengthen their potential for gender mainstreaming. Each Information Pack contains summary information, along with speaker’s notes, handouts, exercises, further reading and linkages to relevant Internet resources.
