About Society of Gender Professionals

Gender specialists around the world are called upon to work with policy-makers, governments, media, non-profits and the private sector on a range of activities from gender mainstreaming, inclusion and integration to program design, research and evaluation, gender budgeting or policy analysis, organizational audits and more. Gender specialists are expected to understand and apply feminist theoretical frameworks and methodologies to a range of technical sectors, such as education, agriculture, infrastructure, nutrition and economics. A number of professional organizations exist in many technical sectors serving gender specialists' work, and some include subsets that focus on gender or feminist praxis. But no cross-cutting association exists to professionalise the gender field and meet the needs of a growing group of gender specialists across sectors and around the world. The Society of Gender Professionals (SGP) aims to fill this gap. We are a non-profit network and organization of gender practitioners, academics, and activists dedicated to promoting feminist action and applied research, and raising the profile of gender expertise. We aim to: - Promote development of intersectional gender expertise for professional practice - Strengthen connections between gender theory, policy, and practice - Promote member collaboration, network-weaving, mentorship, and feminist co-leadership of SGP - Foster production and dissemination of applied gender research - Provide a platform for the exchange of gender expertise and resources Our vision for the SGP is to become the largest cross-sectoral network of gender specialists worldwide; with members who feel empowered with the resources and networks they need to thrive in their careers as gender specialists and to advance gender justice in their communities through coordinated feminist action.
