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.

Hi Nuha, although they aren't education specific, the Washington Group Questionsare currently considered best practice to use to identify PWDs in surveys, especially in low-income settings. (http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/washington_group/wg_questions.htm). In addition, this UNICEF article looks at data collection instruments around disability for children. (http://data.unicef.org/corecode/uploads/document6/uploaded_pdfs/cor...)

Thank you very much for the efforts of gathering information on PLWD (people living with disabilities). I was once involved in a national survey in Zimbabwe that had a Disability Module, when structuring the questionnaire, there is need to look at the type of disability, and the words surrounding disability (Impairment, Disability, Handicap), age when a PLWD starts school, highest level of education attained etc,,national health definitions on disability for instance one who uses spectacles to read may be grouped as disabled,,
Thank you

Hi Nuha,
I was involved in a survey on disabilities in Lebanon, from my experience the following issues are important:
1. Different disabilities have different needs and accordingly strategies are different
2. Based on the culture of the region access to education is different for boys and girls
3. Existing support system within the homes
4 roles and responsibilities within the homes of boys and girls
5. Violence if any within the homes and its impact n people with disability
6. Violence in schools against people with disabilities
7. Challenges to access to education ...immediate and long term
8. Availability of counsellors in schools for parents and students
