The Gender Institute for Capacity Building
In our effort to support graduate and early career professionals, we collaborated with the University of Alberta, Norquest College, the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology and colleagues and trainees from Nnamdi Azikiwe University in Nigeria to establish the Gender Institute for Capacity Building Program accessible here.
Funded by Carnegie Corporation and the University of Alberta, Capacity Building Institute began as a pilot study, delivering tailored programming for graduate and early career researchers at the University of Alberta and African universities. Incoming Queen Elizabeth Scholarship scholars are currently referring to the Gender Institute,
We intend to expand the Gender Institute by making it available in French as well as English, dependent on securing additional funding.
