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.

Le Réseau Francophone de l'Évaluation (RFE) regroupe une vingtaine d'associations nationales œuvrant dans le domaine de l'évaluation. Toute association francophone dans le domaine de l'évaluation désirant faire partir du RFE est la bienvenue.

EvalPartners a lancé un nouveau réseau EvalGender+ pendant le forum global de l'évaluation à Kathmandu le 25 Novembre 2015. Le RFE a fortement soutenu cette initiative. Pour promouvoir les évaluations axées sur l'équité et le genre, le RFE a mis en place un sous-groupe francophone dans la communauté de pratique EvalGender+en ligne.

 La communauté de pratique EvalGender+Francophone mise en place à cette occasion  vise à renforcer le réseautage et soutenir le développement de l’expertise francophone sur les thématiques d’évaluations axées sur l'équité et le genre. Elle permettra d'apprendre les uns des autres mais également d'échanger sur les opportunités dans le monde francophone en plus d’être connecté à la communauté globale en évaluation.
