Be a part
The MGHD program requires student engagement in practicum/research activities to enable them to apply their research skills with Civil Society Organizations and other implementers working directly on SRHR. While students will engage in field work and research projects in the next reporting period, it is important to ensure the participation and commitment of host organizations in the first semester. Therefore, the Centre for Gender Equity team identifies relevant organizations, facilitates site visits and meetings, and secures the engagement of 12 organizations working on SRHR. Students, through the support of their academic supervisors, are working on finalization of their research topics.
