Evaluation of UN Women’s Work on the Care Economy in East and Southern Africa 

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.

Event Description

How do you apply a racial equity lens to working with communities in collective impact?

 

Tackling racial inequalities head on is critical to dramatically improving results for low-income people. As a starting point, equitable collaboration with people of color is critical to ensure that social change efforts are informed by the lived experience of the communities they seek to benefit. This webinar explores this aspect of applying a racial equity lens to collective Impact work: how to ensure that community residents influence the design and direction of collective impact initiatives. While advancing racial equity will take more than just bringing community members to the collective impact table, it’s an important step toward achieving dramatically better results for low-income people, especially people of color.

 

This free webinar is set to take place on Thursday April 30th from 2:00 - 3:30pm ET.
