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.

This article focused on the story of community living in a wildlife corridor that links India and Nepal, namely the Khata Corridor, which bridges Bardiya National Park of Nepal and Katarnia Wildlife Sanctuary of Uttar Pradesh, India.
This article revealed how the wildlife mobility in the corridor affects community livelihoods, mobility, and social inclusion, with a sense of differential impacts on farming and marginalised communities.

SDGs need interlinked indicators, monitoring & evaluation
Hello,
I am delighted to share the second briefings on SDG Evaluation with some clear policy pointers that would help policymakers, advisors evaluators and other practitioners engaged in the evaluation of the Sustainable Development Goals, as advocated by Agenda 2030.
The briefing "Counting critically: SDG ‘follow-up and review’ needs interlinked indicators, monitoring and evaluation" (July 2016) builds on the first, introduces key considerations for the use of indicators, monitoring and evaluation of SDGs implementation and highlights the importance of context-sensitivity, broad stakeholder involvement and adaptive management approaches in efforts to achieve development results. It can be downloaded from http://pubs.iied.org/17363IIED
This is the second of a series of briefings that are developed by EVALSDGs and published by IIED. They are both available here: http://pubs.iied.org

Thanks for posting Kassem. I liked the factors you have highlighted - keeping the context in mind, stakeholder engagement and adaptive management. Would you have any methodology you have employed for adaptive management?
A stakeholder I would like to add here- the communities. Can we meaningfully bring them into the dialogue.Often community engagement is limited to tokenistic consultations.
