Content

In the order a learner meets it. Each block is a separate thing to write, and their order is the lecture's argument.

    Not a chapter, a lens

    8 minNo file attached in the prototype

    A GSI annex added after a plan is written rarely changes what the plan actually does. This opening lecture shows what changes when the same lens is applied from the first consultation instead - using one district plan revised at two different stages to show the difference.

  2. Block 2 · text

    GSI is wider than gender alone

    Gender is the most visible axis of exclusion and the one most often addressed, but disability, age, ethnicity, language and poverty routinely decide who benefits from a plan just as much. A GSI approach that only asks about women misses most of who it is meant to include.
