Fiz o curso porque queria entender melhor como questões de gênero influenciam decisões políticas no Brasil. O conteúdo foi bem organizado e trouxe exemplos práticos, como a análise de políticas públicas de saúde que eu já consegui aplicar no meu trabalho no setor municipal. Os materiais de leitura são atuais e fáceis de seguir, com vídeos curtos que ajudam a fixar o assunto. A turma era bem diversa, o que tornou as discussões ainda mais ricas. Saí do curso confiante para usar ferramentas de avaliação de gênero nas minhas propostas de projetos sociais.
Wow – this advanced certificate was exactly what I needed to boost my expertise in gender‑focused policy work! The course walked me through real‑world case studies from the EU and beyond, and I loved the hands‑on workshops where we built gender impact assessments for simulated legislation. The lecture slides were crystal‑clear, and the supplementary podcasts with leading scholars added depth. After completing the module on lobbying strategies, I successfully advocated for a gender‑balanced amendment in my local council. The learning experience was dynamic, supportive, and left me feeling fully equipped for the next step in my career.
