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.

In Promises & Reality 2026 Citizen’s Review of Year 2 of the NDA-III Government. Coordinated by Wada Na Todo Abhiyan, June 20, 2026. pp 94-100.
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.

Regional Deliberation for Evaluation Conclave
Here is a short note on participation of Institute of Social Studies trust's (ISST)team www.isst-india.org at Regional Deliberation for Evaluation Conclave.
A series of regional deliberations are being held to outreach for the Evaluation Conclave in Feb 2013, Nepal. Today, I had the opportunity to attend the Delhi event with my team mate Shraddha Chigateri. Both of us are part of ISST's project 'Engendering Policy through Evaluation'. www.feministevaluation.org/
Objectives of the Deliberations are: (a) Connect evaluators and other stakeholders at the national, state and grassroots level, (b) Facilitate insights on the evaluation practices, policies, participation of stakeholders and utilization of evaluation, (c) Document and feed highlights of the debates and issues into the Conclave.
The deliberation brought together about 40 local evaluation practitioners, academicians, policy makers, NGOs, students and government organizations who may not be able to participate in the Conclave 2013. There were presentations on Community of Evaluators (CoE) and the Conclave. Now CoE is open to all interested in subject of evaluation. You can join online at http://communityofevaluators.org
There were presentations on impact evaluation, utilisation of evaluation and building demand for evaluation. A very interesting deliberation centred on challenges and strategies to feed evaluation findings into policy.
I was delighted to meet some of our community members- Katherine Hay and Leena Sushant at the event. We had an opportunity to learn from Katherine who chaired two sessions. It was a pleasant surprise to briefly come across Vimalaji and Prerna at the same venue.

Response from Anita Rego on India civil Society online platform
Comment by Anita Victorina Rego 41 minutes agoA great move towards theoretical frameworks in evaluation. Theory based evaluations can change the way one looks at results and outcomes of most of our programs which are largely women focused and community centered programs. Looking from the prism of feminist theory of evaluation can be the answer. I really missed being a part of this deliberations and look forward for regional deliberations in the future.
