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.

This article focused on the story of community living in a wildlife corridor that links India and Nepal, namely the Khata Corridor, which bridges Bardiya National Park of Nepal and Katarnia Wildlife Sanctuary of Uttar Pradesh, India.
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.

Exploring opportunities

Hi fellow evaluators,

Brief introduction: I am a researcher with more than 6 years of experience in diverse industry segments. Currently, I am working as a Brands Consultant with a WPP group organisation, Kantar Millward Brown and helping clients in identifying key communication and messaging levers for their brand advertisements.

What am I looking for: I am looking to re-enter the M&E space and I would really appreciate any help in this regard.

Experience in M&E: Earlier, I was associated with Catalyst Management Services as a Quantitative researcher where I worked on different facets of an impact evaluation, right from writing proposals, coming up with an appropriate evaluation design and arriving at a representative sample to actual implementation on the ground, training the field enumerators and collecting qualitative and quantitative data. I have worked in areas including agriculture, livelihoods, education and gender inequality.

How can I add value: Having worked in the field of advanced analytics, I am now equipped with analytical techniques such as path modelling (or Structural Equation Modelling), decision tree analysis (using CHAID) and Bayesian Modelling. This is, of course, on top of the usual techniques that we use in impact evaluations such as linear/logistic regressions, significance testing, propensity score matching, sampling, etc. I firmly believe that these advanced techniques can add a lot of value to our existing impact evaluation landscape.

I am also attaching my CV for your reference.

Thank you for your time and effort.

Best regards,

Puneet Gupta
