Q. What was your favourite thing about GPAN training?
"I really enjoyed the design of the GPAN training sessions; it was Sandalife, inclusive environment that fostered respect, promoted contribution and meaningful discussion whilst still providing an in-depth training session in each area of the gender equity modules. Through this design, I have met so many new people and created new friendships that I wouldn't have had the opportunity with out the GPAN program."
