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.

Dear Colleagues,
We are excited to invite you to a global webinar hosted by the Humanitarian Evaluation Working Group (HEWG) to officially launch and disseminate the Guidance on the Integration of Humanitarian Principles in the Evaluation of Humanitarian Action. This important event will take place on October 14 at 9am (New York), 3pm (Geneva/Rome), 4pm (Nairobi/Amman).
This 60-minute webinar is tailored for evaluation practitioners, including managers and evaluators from both UN and non-UN organizations. The recently published guidance provides crucial tools for integrating the core humanitarian principles of humanity, impartiality, neutrality, and independence into evaluations conducted in complex humanitarian settings.
The session will feature insights from Margie Buchanan-Smith, the author of the guidance, alongside experienced humanitarian evaluators, and will highlight how this guidance can be applied to strengthen the quality and credibility of humanitarian evaluations.
To register for the webinar, please use the following link: Webinar Registration - Zoom
We encourage you to review the guidance ahead of the webinar and share this invitation with your colleagues and networks to ensure broad participation in this important event.
We look forward to your participation!
Best regards,
Sara & Laura

Hope you can attend the webinar next Monday. I also want to share the link to the Guidance:
https://www.unevaluation.org/document/detail/3520
This guide has been written to provide practical guidance and tools to evaluators and evaluation managers, to integrate humanitarian principles (HPs) into standard evaluations of humanitarian action, and thus to strengthen the attention paid to HPs in evaluations of international humanitarian action, particularly in situations of armed conflict.
The UNEG Humanitarian Evaluation Working Group is piloting this guidance. They group is very eager to hear from evaluation managers and practitioners who are using it in their work. If you are using it and are able to provide some feedback on your experience, please send me a message!
Thank you,
Florencia
