During COVID-19 I was involved in three evaluations, one in South India (face to face) and one additionally covering parts of north- west India (online). The evaluations were of projects/programs on livelihood development and women's economic empowerment. These were carried out in the first phase of COVID-19 which was not so severe.
The lessons on challenges posed by gender and diversity in face to face interactions during evaluations during COVID-19 were the following:
At the same time, COVID-19 created more opportunity to interact with men and male youth to ascertain changes in their attitudes, as migrants (more men than women) were present in villages. It was possible to meet diverse and more women during online interviews as travel costs were saved which could be invested in cost of consultants in meeting more time on evaluation.
Some gendered findings on impact of COVID-19 on livelihood and women's economic empowerment were the following:
Positive
Negative
Thus, there are gendered challenges to evaluation and gendered outcomes as well which need to be kept in mind.
