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 Details
Event Description
Dear colleagues, You are cordially invited to attend a UNEG webinar “UNEG updated Norms and Standards for Evaluation: why are they important and how will they impact work”. The event will take place on Tuesday, 18 October, from 9:30 to 10:30 am (New York time). In 2016, UNEG updated its foundational document “Norms and Standards for Evaluation,” which provides shared basic principles and best practices in managing, conducting and using evaluations. The UNEG Norms and Standards was first adopted in 2005. Since then, it has been the guiding documents for the UN evaluation community and has been greatly recognized by member states and the global evaluation community. At the webinar, Marco Segone (UNEG Chair; Director, Independent Evaluation Office, UN Women) and Andrea Cook (UNEG Vice-Chair; Director, Evaluation Office, UNFPA) will discuss the use of Norms and Standards in the past decade, why and how the document was updated, and what the enhancements are. Please register the event at http://uneg-norms-and-standards.eventbrite.com We hope that you will be able to join us at this webinar. |
The United Nations Evaluation Group (UNEG) is a professional network that brings together the offices responsible for evaluation in the UN system, including the specialized agencies, funds, programmes and affiliated organizations. |
