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.

Uganda Evaluation Year celebration Report 2015
The Government of Uganda represented by the Office of the Prime Minister and the Uganda Parliamentary Forum on Evaluation in partnership with the Uganda Evaluation Association with support from USAID, GIZ-ECD project and International Labour Organization organized the Uganda Evaluation Week 2015 to join the rest of the world in celebration for Evalyear 2015. This Event is an international platform where Policy makers, Government technocrats, Civil Society, Academia, Development Partners, Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) practitioners and the private sector meet to share evaluation experiences. The ongoing Evaluation week is the third of its kind held annually and it has attracted participants from African Countries, Europe, and the Americas and beyond. The central theme for the 2015 Evaluation Week is “Quality Evaluations for Accountable Service Delivery”. The week started with a pre-conference training on Development Evaluation which was conducted for selected participants that applied for training from the 10th -11th March 2015, followed by a conference from the 12th – 13th March 2015.
From the main theme, six sub-themes were identified and these respond to gaps and challenges to evaluation in Uganda. Those are 1) Building a culture of reviews and evaluation with special focus to giving evaluation its platform, understanding the value of evaluation, making evaluation relevant and raising the platform for users of evaluation; 2) Utilization of Evaluations Knowledge management with special attention to Influencing decision-making, sharing evaluation to stakeholders, utilization of findings and recommendations and Role of Parliament; 3) Strengthening and institutionalizing evaluation capacity & practice focused on capacity building, methodological issues, evaluation process, key challenges for evaluation practice in Uganda and gender and/or conflict sensitive evaluation; 4) Evaluation Ethics, Standards and Systems. This sub-theme is therefore expected to address issues relating to ethics in Evaluation, evaluation Standards, quality assurance and evaluation Systems others themes were Building Evaluation Partnerships and Communities of Practice and Political Economy of evaluation for more information you can check on our website www.opm.go.ug, www.ugandaevaluationassociation.org, https://ecduganda.wordpress.com/evaluation-week-2/, www.ugandaevaluationassociation.org, https://ecduganda.wordpress.com/evaluation-week-2/ or https://ecduganda.wordpress.com/evaluation-week-2/
