• Include professional training for "non-traditional" jobs for women, such as infrastructure construction (any sector within which women represent 25% or less of total personnel). • Include equal access opportunities to training for other types of jobs linked to infrastructure, such as service management/operation. Consider establishing a women's quota. Include dissemination campaigns that foster participation of women and men. Link training to job-promotion national programs, e.g., job centers.
