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.

Quisiera referirme a los diversos tenmas que se plantean en este foro:

Cuando se habla de Evaluación, estamos hablando de procesos que tiene que ver con el fortalecimiento de capacidades a nivel de pais, sobre todo cuando se tocan temas que son compromisos a nivel de nación y que aportan al bienestar  en este caso  la equidad e igualdad de género, una de las limitaciones que visualizo en cuanto a los métodos exitentes de recolecciónde datos, es que si bien es cierto existen indicadores de país, no se registran sistematicamente, esto quiee decir que es dificil darle seguimiento e indicar la situación real sobre este tema.

Por otro lado el ejercicio evaluativo debiera ser desde la perspectiva del Estado como garante de los Derechos Humanos de todas las personas y desde su obligatoriedad al hacer vida las direrentes politica públicas que existen, comprender y delimitar los impactos de todas las intervenciones de instituciones de estado y sociedad civil requiere homogenizar, primero los sindicadores a los cuales se les darpa seguimiento, luego la manera de registrar la información, consensuarla y presentarla, como medir el impacto?, podrpia ser de muchas manera pero somo tiene que ver con cambios de comportamiento, con cambios de vida, sería importante no solo utilizar información cuantitativa, sino cualitativa de primera mano, es decir, de la boca de las personas que están viviendo  o nó el cambio.

Bueno no todo es negativo, también se están haciendo muchos esfuerzos a nivel de Estado y sociedad civil, en mi institución que es de Estado, estamos identificando, formulando e incorporando indicadores a nuestro sistema de monitoreo y evaluación,  para darle seguimiento a todas las acciones de otras instituciones de Estado que tienen que ver con la politica de desarrollo social y que tienen que ver con la equidad y el enfoque de genero.
