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.

International Women's Day 2021 (and every day)
'No Room for Misinterpretation'
The jurisprudence of the CEDAW committee seem to be the least well known and the least referenced, compared to all of the other committees for the various human rights conventions. I'm determined to change this!
I'm preparing to write some articles which emphasize some key findings and judgements that the committee has made over the years. And where relevant highlight some of its failings.
While I was analysing the cases from the committee, I came across 2 really important rulings that I think should be known much wider. The two cases deal with different situations but both involve women affected by violence, and the completely inadequate response of the justice system to accommodate them. In the first case, Jallow v Bulgaria, CEDAW demands that States must provide proper access to services and the legal system by providing information in other languages and translation/interpretation especially for women who are migrants and affected by domestic violence. In the second case, RPB v Philippines, the State failed to provide proper access to the justice system for a very young women who used sign language and was a survivor of violence.
It struck me that these two important pieces of information, are actually available in only a few languages!. I work across languages every day, and many of the organisations I work with are very organised and prepared when it comes to working in multilingual contexts. Yet these incredibly important statements by the CEDAW committee are known by so few people.
So we're crowdsourcing the translation of two simple sentences - into as many languages as possible! We've received over 30 contributions so far and we'll continue to collect up as many translations as possible to disseminate them widely.
