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.

“Parliamentarians for Evaluation” Campaign
Parliamentarians EvalStories to Promote Demand and Use of Evaluation
With great success of holding the historical Global EvalYear Event at the Parliament of Nepal and launch of Global Parliamentarians Forum for Evaluation (GPFE), parliamentarians’ role in promoting evaluation culture has become more prominent. More than 450 delegates including parliamentarians, VOPE leaders, government officials, representatives of UN agencies, International organizations, private sector, donors, among others attended this historic event at the Parliament of Nepal.
The Sustainable Development Goals (Agenda 2030) ensuring “No one left behind” and the Global Evaluation Agenda 2016-2020 (EvalAgenda 2020) reveal the need for redoubled efforts on advocacy for evaluation. In this context, the GPFE initiated the “Parliamentarians for Evaluation” Campaign inviting parliamentarians around the world to advocate for evaluation in the context of Agenda 2030 (SDGs) in line with the EvalAgenda 2020. The campaign will also highlight the importance of equity focused and gender responsive evaluation. The Campaign aims to document and widely disseminate, brief videos with key messages from parliamentarians to strengthen an enabling environment and to create an archive of shared knowledge for the global evaluation community.
Parliamentarians’ advocacy messages represent an invaluable resource for increasing the quality of demand and use of evaluation work. Against this backdrop we would like to warmly invite you to support this initiative by obtaining EvalStories from parliamentarians in your country. The videos we are looking for should contain responses, by parliamentarians, to the following questions:
1) Over the course of your mandate at the Parliament of your country, how evaluation has been helpful for evidence based policy making in the country?
2) How demand and use of evaluation can be strengthened to better influence the decision making processes for national public policies?
3) Given the SDG/ Agenda 2030 calls for “no one left behind”, how should national policies be evaluated with a social equity and gender equality lens? What are the mechanisms to ensure that “no one is left behind” in the process?
4) How do you see the future of evaluation in the next years? Which topics should gain most attention and why?
We specially invite Voluntary Organizations for Professional Evaluation (VOPEs) and evaluation professionals to engage parliamentarians in the campaign. Please contact Jérôme Gandin, Campaign Manager jgandin@universalia.com for personalized invitations to parliamentarians and the campaign team for further support. For further information about the GPFE, please contact Ada Ocampo, aocampo@unicef.org or Asela Kalugampitiya aselakalugampitiya@yahoo.ie.
Our sincerest thanks for your commitment to the Parliamentarians for Evaluation Campaign. We look forward to sharing videos globally.
