A Support MAIL and ARIA in Creating Roles for Women as Researchers and Technicians Sample Clauses

A Support MAIL and ARIA in Creating Roles for Women as Researchers and Technicians. Recruitment measures for the long-term training program began during the first quarter, in preparation for a public announcement in January by MAIL. Activities included engaging in focus groups conducted with women students at the Universities of Herat, Nangarhar, Balkh and Kabul, to identify distinctive needs for women who would consider participating in GRAIN training programs. Potential applicants were advised that preference would be afforded to female students intending to apply for either the masters or doctoral scholarships. Direct discussions ensued with women currently employed at MAIL/ARIA/DAIL who possess a commitment to agronomy research, and commitment to ensure greater participation of women in the development of Afghanistan’s wheat sector. Efforts increased in late December when GRAIN’s Gender and Social Inclusion Advisor joined the team and led additional focus group discussions to identify qualified female candidates within and outside MAIL. She will continue these efforts in January, and will advise on distribution of information about scholarship opportunities through student, civic activist, and professional women’s civil society organizations, and will conduct follow-up focus groups at universities.
