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.

Strength-based Approach in IAMR's M&E training
Institute of Applied Manpower Research based in Narela, Delhi conducted M&E training for government officers (Associate Directors Planning) from the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The IAMR M&E team is led by Dr Rashmi Agrawal and includes Dr G P Joshi, Dr Shachi, Dr Sanchita and others. Guest faculty Rituu B Nanda introduced Constellation's strength-based approach community life competence approach (http://communitylifecompetence.org/en/) to 16 participants. Participants declared their support to the year 2015 as international year of Evaluation. They formulated action plans to use community life competence in their work in planning and M&E in the coming year.
Said Rupinder Kaur, " I will use SALT in my work with medical colleges both in planning and monitoring. It will provide richer data and engage the people I work with. We focus too much on quantitative aspects and ignore the stories of the people."
Mir Bilal, "I think that Government officers can better apply SALT because of their day to day dealing with Subordinates and public. By appreciation of our subordinates they can work better, listening to them and will boost their morale...to approach like human beings will stimulate them , they will also apply SALT in their life and the day will come everyone will get his or her value and also better outputs."

Here is a comment from Jan Somers, SALT facilitator from Belgium. Thanks Jan!
A generative evaluation based on an appreciative dialogue helps people to see evaluation as an essential part of moving forward and them to take steps. The auto evaluation process with 5 levels towards dream realisation is such an example of generative evaluation. Much more powerful than a job satisfaction measurement
