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
PROTEST ACTION
Stop Violence Against Women and Girls
Monday 22nd, 12.30 pm, Jantar Mantar, New Delhi
Since the December 2012 gang rape case in Delhi, many cases of violence against women and girls are being reported with frightening regularity. In the first three months of this year alone, there have been 393 reported cases of rape in Delhi. The shocking incident of sexual assault and brutalization of a 5 year old girl in Delhi and that of a 6 year old girl who was raped and murdered in Aligarh are two of the recent cases that have been highlighted. Over and over again, the police have failed to discharge their duties and have proved themselves to be corrupt, ineffective, prejudiced and often violent.
In case after case, women, their relatives and supporters continue to be harassed and those protesting the inaction of the police are being thrashed. In the Delhi case, we protest the calculated delay in filing an FIR, attempts at bribing the family and the audacity in assaulting a woman protester. We also protest the physical violence perpetrated by the police in Aligarh on women protesters, as well as the insensitive remarks of the SSP (Aligarh), Amit Pathak, about the little girl who was murdered. Suspending police personnel is mere eyewash and NOT enough! We have to make sure that all those who have attempted to subvert justice are chargesheeted and dismissed. We have to hold police personnel accountable under the various provisions of the newly promulgated Criminal Law (Amendment) Act 2013. We also demand that police reforms be initiated accountability secured from men in uniform.
Friends, comrades, join the protest organised by women's groups and progressive groups on Monday 22nd April 2013 at 12.30 pm at Jantar Mantar.
Mobilise and come in large numbers. Bring your banners and placards.
In solidarity,
Citizens' Collective against Sexual Assault, Nirantar, Saheli, Jagori, AIDWA, AIPWA, Progammi Mahila Sanghatan, NFIW, Swastik Mahila Samit, Women against Sexual Violence and State Repression, Purva, Pyoli, Lokesh, Vrinda Grover and others.
