This Insight proposes some solutions for strengthening gender responsiveness in evaluations of the SDGs.

How far had the programme strengthened resilience to such medical disasters and its consequences for migrants and informal sector? To me this…See More

Dear Ranjani Thanks for your reply and for the information. That page does not disaggregate gender within ST and SC unfortunately. If you know any other way of finding out what the gender divisions are within ST and SC workers within NREGA it would be great to know. Or if not data then any studies that unpack these issues, even if just from one state. Many thanks for your help. Beth

Hi Ranjani
I am trying to find data/analysis of MNREGA that shows numbers of women within ST and SC workers employed in MNREGA (national figures). Would you know where I can find these?
Many thanks
