Evaluation of UN Women's work on the Care Economy in East and Southern Africa - Evaluation Report
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 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.

Are you excited about implementing a developmental evaluation? Are you struggling with having to adjust the evaluation budget every time you adjust the intervention? How do you put your arms around the unknowns? You are not alone. The practice of developmental evaluation is changing the way foundations and evaluators practice, contract, and work with each other and with other stakeholders who are part of the evaluand.
Join us - two evaluators and a foundation program officer - in a dialogue about what development evaluation is supposed to be and the realities of practicing this approach. There will be time to also hear from webinar participants about their experiences with developmental evaluation.
Speakers
Tanya Beer, Associate Director, Center for Evaluation Innovation, will provide an overview of developmental evaluation, including its unique characteristics and considerations for evaluating planning, measurement, analysis, and learning agendas.
Kristi Ward, Leadership Programs Manager, Bush Foundation, will share her perspective on what it meant for the Bush Foundation to engage in a developmental evaluation process, the opportunities it provided for learning and advancing the foundation's leadership work, and also the challenges it posed for management and communications.
Kien Lee, Principal Associate & Vice President, Community Science, will discuss the degree to which the evaluation of a leadership strategy funded by the Bush Foundation reflected the principles of developmental evaluation, and the lessons learned about the circumstances under which such an evaluation is feasible.
