The Jordan Refugee Interagency Taskforce (IATF) seeks to ensure that women and men (including young adults and elderly), girls and boys (including adolescents, children and infants) are able to equitably access the available humanitarian resources irrespective of their gender or age. This reflects the policies of its member agencies. One of the strategies that it uses is to sponsor a cross-sectorial network that focuses on how to effectively promote gender equality in the sectors’ needs analyses, strategic responses and activities, and response indicators. The Sector Gender Focal Point Network (SGFPN) comprises gender focal points nominated from each of the refugee sectors and is chaired by 3 agencies that lead refugee sectors: UNHCR, UNICEF and WFP. The network is supported by the Senior Gender Capacity Advisor to the IATF and HCT. The role of the Gender Focal Points is to support their nominating sector to incorporate and monitor gender equality measures. The Network uses a range of strategies to support its members, including: peer-learning, information sharing, coaching, training, training others, and sharing useful resources. This portion of the web portal aims to share resources about gender equality in humanitarian action that humanitarians may find useful in their work.
