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.

Pelican
Areas of work like health, education etc
I am a consummate GENDER, GBV AND CONFLICT PREVENTION SPECIALIST WITH OVER 10 years of experience in prevention and response to Gender-Based Violence (GBV) in 20 countries across Pacific, South-East Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa. Survivors and stakeholders depend on me to deliver expert and practical implementation strategies on mitigating GBV in developmental and humanitarian contexts. A significant aspect of my work has entailed supporting and complementing existing structures on national, regional and global levels, specifically: social norms and behaviour change, technical support, gender and GBV mainstreaming, case management, capacity building, coordination, institutional strengthening, and financial management. I have managed projects under BMZ, DFiD, ECHO, EU, MSF, OXFAM and UNFPA. This experience paired with my strong communication skills has been critical in advocating for access to health care and social services interventions for survivors, developing one-stop centers, contributing to relevant tools, guidelines, policies and bills affecting GBV and CSO shadow reporting on CEDAW. I speak English (C2), Swahili (B1), Spanish (A2) and French (A2). I am flexible and can work independently as well in teams and exceed expectations given the limited availability of my leader.
