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.

Thanks a million for sharing. I have read it. I am not so worried whether they are activities or targets. I'm always worried about the implementation of laudable ideas that can regenerate the human community and better the lots of women. I'm always sad when a woman dies while giving birth to another soul. We take care of the armed forces to the extent that in each country of the world there is armed forces remembrance day where fallen soldiers are eulogized. But we do next to nothing to those who die while giving birth to soldiers. As the world is planning to prioritize issues on Sustainable Development Goals, I think we need to look critically at the issues around Maternal Health - No woman should die while replenishing the earth! The developing world, with the support of the developed world,Β should include the following in the Sustainable Development Agenda because the Pregnant Woman is on NATIONAL SERVICE in any country. 1. Pregnancy should not equal to TERMINATION of employment - the Pregnant Woman should not be discriminated upon anywhere - home, office etcΒ  2. The Pregnant Woman should be entitled to full salary and MATERNITY leave and allowance. 3. The Pregnant Woman should be entitled to adequate protection, care, support and PREGNANCY insurance policy/Life Assurance Policy. 4. The Pregnant Woman should be entitled to breast-feeding leave of not more than a year and/with allowance. Note that the Pregnant Woman is on NATIONAL SERVICE in any country - she must not die while giving BIRTH.
