Resources on gender aware Monitoring, Learning and Evaluation

[Rituu B Nanda]

Dear Members,

I would like to review and put together a resource pack of papers/reports on gender-aware MLE approaches, that might be useful for our work. I was wondering if you had any suggestions on resources or any favorite documents/links ? 

Given your experience in this area, it would be great to have your insights! We promise to share the summary of the resources with you. 

And resources in different languages are welcome!

Thank you

Rituu
