A regional study of gender equality observatories in West and Central Africa, carried out by Claudy Vouhé for UN Women
Sources: UN Women
This regional study offers an inventory and analysis of the legal framework of gender observatories, their attributions, functions and missions. It is based on exchanges with 21 countries, in particular the eleven countries that have created observatories. It compares the internal organisation and budgets of the observatories between countries, looks at operational practices, in particular the degree of involvement in the collection and use of data, and identifies obstacles and good practices in terms of influencing pro-gender equality public policies. Finally, the study draws up a list of strategic recommendations intended for observatories, supervisory bodies and technical and financial partners.

This article focused on the story of community living in a wildlife corridor that links India and Nepal, namely the Khata Corridor, which bridges Bardiya National Park of Nepal and Katarnia Wildlife Sanctuary of Uttar Pradesh, India.
This article revealed how the wildlife mobility in the corridor affects community livelihoods, mobility, and social inclusion, with a sense of differential impacts on farming and marginalised communities.

Event Description
The workshop will have three segments.
Session 1:09 00– 1200[Facilitator: Rituu B Nanda, ISST/Constellation, India]
An interactive session which will provide the participants a taste of SALT and community life competence approach.
What happens when you approach the community to Stimulate, Appreciate, Learn, Listen and Transfer? Having been successfully applied in 66 countries, this approach can help create a safe space where the most marginalised can share and engage without fear and without being judged. This is particularly valuable in scenarios where we would like to bring in the voice of those affected by the issue.
Rituu has used this approach in gender and equity focused evaluation as well as in participatory action research.
Session 2: 13 30 – 15 30 [Facilitator: Ranjani Murthy, Independent Evaluator, Gender, Equity and Development]
A gender, poverty and empowerment evaluation framework developed by Ranjani K. Murthy, and its application, will be shared. The framework builds on Amartya Sen’s concept of entitlements. This framework is relevant when the objective of the program includes women’s poverty reduction and empowerment. Women’s poverty is discussed at two levels: dimensions and causes. Three levels of empowerment, based on Rowland’s concept, -power to (individual), power with (collective) and power within (deep rooted values) frame assessment of gender and diversity related impact. Use of mixed participatory methods and quasi experimental methods will be discussed using a case study.
Session 3:16 00 – 17 00 [Facilitator: Rajib Nandi, Research Fellow, ISST]
Rajib Nandi will discuss and critique commonly used indicators measuringoutcome/impact.
Methods: Exercises, Caselets, discussions
