• Gender audits are a tool designed to evaluate
  your provision with regard to the gender
  representation within youth work projects. The
  results are intended to highlight the balance or
  imbalance of resources, time, staffing and nature
  of activities and projects offered to, and
  engaging, young women and young men.

• After several months of working with the young
  women in the club, encouraging them to voice
  their opinions and to fight for their turn on the
  activities, the gender audit highlighted the fact
  that our hard work has paid off what we now see
  is a fair split of young women and young men in
  the centre and that the activities they are
  taking part in are not stereotypical
