6 — Framework for gender mainstreaming in coach education

Roles and Responsibilities of Stakeholders

The success of any gender mainstreaming plan hinges on clarity around stakeholder roles. Responsibilities must be distributed across levels and functions:

  • Senior Management: Sets vision, ensures accountability, approves funding.
  • Gender Focal Points or Equality Officers: Coordinates implementation, provides technical expertise.
  • Coaching Educators: Integrate gender perspectives into pedagogy and evaluation.
  • Students and Trainees: Provide feedback on inclusivity and learning experience.
  • External Partners: NGOs or national agencies may support training or evaluation.
