[Anthony Zwi]

Dear Colleagues

The document mentioned above (and below) has just been published by the
World Health Organization in conjunction with numerous other agencies.
It should be of interest to many working in Timor-Leste.  The authors would
value feedback in due course.
Other materials on the Gender site at WHO (see url below) may also be of
value.
