RAI SENGUPTA - gender-transformative evaluation tools
This synthesis draws on evidence from 17 humanitarian evaluations across diverse crisis settings. It identifies key feminist evaluation innovations across four domains - design, methods, analysis, and ethics - illustrating how feminist principles can be embedded throughout the evaluation process. It also surfaces broader shifts required at policy, institutional, and practice levels to realise the transformative potential of feminist approaches in humanitarian contexts.
The toolkit translates these insights into applied guidance for evaluators and organisations. It provides step-by-step support across the full evaluation cycle, including planning, design, methods, analysis, ethics, and dissemination. Drawing on global feminist evaluation practice, humanitarian guidance, and gender evaluation standards, it includes adaptable tools, participatory and arts-based methods, guiding questions, and templates for field application.

UTTHAN - Research Report
Traversing the path with women farmers in their fields and in our reflections/writings, a stark observation was the sheer lack of localized and regional vocabulary and terminology to adequately capture and communicate the understanding of climate change and mitigation strategies, informed by the unique experiences and needs of small and marginal women farmers. This is what propelled our research - to examine how women farmers perceive, express, experience, and respond to climate variability across
Our Research Report centres the lived experiences, generational knowledge, and resilience strategies of small and marginal women farmers from the coastal (Bhavnagar) and hilly (Dahod & Panchmahal) regions i.e two contrasting agro-climatic zones of Gujarat. Through their voices, the study reveals exactly how climate change intersects with gender, land rights, labour burdens, and food security.

Evalfest 2018 Call for Innovations
Call%20for%20innovative%20practices.docx
EvalFest 2018 is a three-day event that aims to contribute to building a cultureof evaluation through advocacy, and capacity building by sharing knowledgeabout best practices, approaches and evaluation methods that are participatory,contextual, replicable and adaptable.This event is conceptualized with the belief that every stakeholder involved with the process of development has something critical and mutually reinforcing to bring to the field of evaluation.
EvalFest provides the convening space to bring all together to have collective ideas. The
event is envisaged to be inclusive and participatory for a range of actors from beneficiaries
through to policymakers.The point of intersection for these diverse actors is their interest and involvement in some or
the other way in development process, monitoring and evaluation of development programs.
EvalFest 2018 willprovide space for and encourage less traditional forms of information sharing, such as theatreand storytelling using drawing, photos or oral histories (Visibility for all) to focus onevaluation experiences from non-traditional voices in evaluation conferences (Voice for all).Possible themes will focus on the multiple types of values that evaluation can have and reducemisunderstanding and anxieties that people might have about it. (How to Value evaluationstaking out Fear of evaluation and enhance their use)
We plan to have a participatory session on innovative practices in evaluation- methodologies/tools/ technology/application and outcomes/innovation in disseminations etc., through the format of an ‘Innovation Bazaar’.
What is an ‘Innovation Bazaar’?A bazaar is an area where goods and services are exchanged or sold. Our ‘Innovation Bazaar’ is where individuals/organisations can present their innovative ideas around evaluation and in exchange can get participants feedback and response to their presentations. The bazaar will be in the form of a space with each participant/organization given to present their innovative ideas, and the participants visit the ‘bazaar stall’ to hear from the presenters on the innovations. Presentations can use innovative medium e.g. story-telling, slideshows, posters etc. (In order to minimize disturbance with other presentations using audio speakers would not be allowed). Presenters will need to bring their own laptops, projectors, charts, etc. for showcasing their innovations.
If you would like to share please send us short note on 250 words:
- Innovation in what particular field (be as specific as possibleandit should have a close relation to evaluation)
