Toksave Pacific Gender Resource aims to address gender inequality in the Pacific by ensuring quality Pacific research and knowledge is discoverable and accessible.
The portal does this by:
- Bringing into one place ethical gender research that builds knowledge, informs policies, and has an impact on reducing gender inequality in the Pacific;
- Providing contextual information about gender research, policy and their impact on gender inequality in the Pacific;
- Providing opportunities for communities of practice to emerge in the Pacific with open, critical and constructive discussion;
- Supporting collaboration, reflection and learning among Pacific researchers interested in addressing gender inequalities; and
- Promoting research capacity building for Pacific researchers interested in addressing gender inequality.
