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.

EES 2014
Back from EES 2014, very much lived up to expectations. A group of us had first gone in 2010 to the EES Conference at Prague and that was part of the process leading to the Engendering Policy through Evaluation project managed by Institute of Social Studies Trust (ISST), and to participation in EES 2012 and now EES 2014. We are pleased to have been part of the Gender Strand started if I’m not wrong, in 2010. Over these years, we’ve learnt a lot about evaluation approaches and methods and hopefully have also contributed to better understanding of the Indian context.
This time ISST had organized two panels, and perhaps, the combination of ‘India’ and ‘gender’ made them a bit of a ‘niche’ choice, given the many exciting parallel sessions on at the same time. We very much valued the feedback and discussion with those who did come to these panels. Maybe, next time round, the India papers (hoping there would be some) need to be better mixed with others. The pre-conference workshop on Systems Thinking led by Martin Reynolds was excellent, and very useful for me; enjoyed the keynote by Marco Segone; also one of the education and training sessions (noted though that none of the four papers had given any thought to gender…); insightful paper on relevance by Elias Sagmeister; and ofcourse so much else: grateful for the excellent logistics!

Dear Ratna
Some of our observations are similar. System thinking did leave a dent on my mind too, and have some papers from Richard who facilitated the session that I attended. Yes, we need to position ourselves within the mixed panels in addition to gender strand.
And .......I had a great time with you. The meal and drink on the boat was special along with Anjali
Best
Ranjani.
