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.

Query: Gender study on Economic Empowerment-business opportunities for Women Entrepreneurs

Dear Colleagues,
We are conducting a brief study on enhancing business opportunities for Women Entrepreneurs specifically with respect to two points:
 
1. Procurement gender gap-What is the business case to close the procurement gender gap? - Why businesses should care about the problem. What barriers prevent this gender gap from closing? - Why the problem persists - forming the basis for how can be mitigated 
2. Supplier Chain Diversity 
3. Women Owned Business and Entrepreneurship 
These were the two questions for which we need to get some data / information regarding drivers or obstacles for the 6 countries - Bangladesh, Indonesia, Mexico, Columbia, Turkey and Nigeria.  All secondary data is fine as along as we have source
It is based on secondary research and literature review. I would appreciate any references to studies conducted or data sources that can help us answer basic questions with data - quantitative and/or qualitative around barriers and solutions.
Last date 6th Sep'21
Would appreciate your assistance in this regard.

Hi Karon,

ILO's 'GET Ahead' tool (Gender&Entrepreneurship Together) has been used in many countries. A more recent survey was done on "Empowering Women at Work: Policies and Practices for Gender Equallity in Supply Chains" (publ. 12/2020) that may provide some conceptual and hansd-on material for use in training & workshops, although both are not specifically targeting the countries you are looking at. Hope this may prove useful, all the best, Susanne
