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.

Evaluation included in SDG Outcome document
Dear colleagues,
(for additional info click http://www.unevaluation.org/mediacenter/newscenter/newsdetail/113 )
The outcome document of the United Nations Summit for the adoption of the post-2015 development agenda, "Transforming Our World: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development", is now available. It was agreed to by consensus by Member States on Sunday, 2 August 2015. The United Nations summit for the adoption of the post-2015 development agenda will be held from 25 to 27 September 2015, where world leaders will gather at the United Nations Headquarters in New York City to renew their commitment to development and adopt the new development agenda.
In 2015, the global evaluation community celebrates the International Year of Evaluation to advocate and promote evaluation and evidence-based policy making at international, regional, national and local levels. For the international evaluation community, what is particulay exciting is that "evaluation" was integrated in this new Agenda, in the "follow-up and review" section. It indicates that the follow-up and review processes of implementation of the post-2015 Development Agenda will be informed by country-led evaluations and data (paragraph 74G). It also calls for strengthening national evaluation capacity (paragraph 74H).
We are proud to say that UNEG, with support from our partners, played a critical role in advocating on the importance of evaluation during the intergovernmental negotiations. This is another important milestone for UNEG and the international evaluation community, following the stand-alone United Nations General Assembly Resolution, "Capacity building for the evaluation of development activities at the country level", which was adopted in December 2014 (click for more information).
This is an important period for all of us. Let us continue to join hands to promote evaluation for better development results.
Best regards
