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.

Examples of Use of Gender Analytical Frameworks
Dear Friends,
Greetings!
I am a Professor at the Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Mumbai and Hyderabad, India. I have been teaching a course titled: Gender and Development Practice for Masters degree students for over a decade. Students are introduced to the most prominent gender analytical frameworks and are given exercises through case vignettes to help them use the frameworks. Most often they use Naila Kabeer's social relations framework and also ask questions while assessing number of ideas, plans and policies whether they are addressing gender practical needs or gender strategic needs or whether gender practical needs are being addressed strategically to then move into asking strategic interests (lot of playing around with Caroline Moser and Maxine Molyneux ideas). Also use gender specific, gender neutral and gender transformative classification for analysis (Naila Kabeer's ideas)
While there is lot of literature on the inadequacies in the development theorising and practice from the point of view of gender; then different frameworks that have emerged to help make a difference; I have not been able to find any case studies volume or a book or books that actually demonstrate the application of these frameworks from the conception of a project and the difference it could make to build a gender sensitive or gender transformative programme or development initiative. I would even like to see evaluation research outputs using any of these frameworks for the assessment and analysis.
I am writing to all of you to share with me resources that you are aware of which will be useful to me and my students. The examples can be from livelihoods, health, education or any sector. Kindly share them on this link and if you would like to mail me pdfs or links to google drive - kindly write to me on lakshmi.lingam@gmail.com. I would appreciate an early response since the course is on and I can integrate your support at the earliest.
Thanks
Lakshmi Lingam.
