Claudy Vouhé shared GRB in local authorities (French)
Gender-Responsive Budgeting (GRB) shows that the development of a budget and budgetary choices are powerful levers in terms of gender equality. We share our lessons learned in the field: a 5-step method, concrete examples (culture, sport, subsidies, public procurement, etc.) and keys to success. An operational work to objectify the impact of public policies and budgets and make RHL accessible.
Anuradha Kapoor Shared Swayam Recent Published Study
This exploratory study foregrounds the largely invisible issue of natal family violence (NFV) in India, exploring its forms, prevalence, and deep, long-term impacts on women's lives. It challenges the myth of the natal home as a safe space and centres survivor voices and lived experiences. The findings expose systemic silences and institutional barriers to justice. It offers vital insights for policy reform, feminist praxis, and deeper societal reflection.

Tara Prasad Gnyawali - Narrative
My flashback to working with wildlife-affected communities living in a biological transboundary corridor in Bardiya, Nepal, where I spent my golden 15 years. This story reflects changes that demonstrate how a community's tolerance extends to coexistence, and that is only due to the well-integrated planning of Ecotourism opportunities for the community.

International Year of Evaluation 2015, “Evaluation torch” to be passed over to events around the world:
International Year of Evaluation 2015
“Evaluation torch” to be passed over to events around the world:
As we get ready to launch 2015, the International Year of Evaluation (EvalYear), we are inviting evaluators, managers and policy makers from all over the world to celebrate evaluation and the way we have linked with one another to promote the demand, supply and use of equity-focused and gender-responsive evaluation in policy and program decisions. We have created below master calendar, of gatherings on evaluation during 2015 in every part of the world. The closing gathering of 2015 will be the Global Evaluation Week at the Parliament of Nepal in November 2015, and it will echo and celebrate messages shared throughout EvalYear. All evaluator gatherings are important, large and small, in every country where our profession is exercised and can be useful to our societies.
During EvalYear, we will carry a virtual “2015 evaluation” torch to link the discussions that will happen all over the world around the four selected themes for EvalYear:
- Identifying the key future priorities for the global evaluation community to launch the 2016-2020 Global Evaluation Agenda;
- Bridging the gap between the evaluation community (supply side) and the policy makers community (demand side), including Parliamentarians, to ensure good quality, equity-focused and gender-responsive evaluations are demanded and used in policy making;
- Mainstreaming equity-focused and gender-responsive evaluations in Sustainable Development Goals at international level, and in national development strategies at national level;
- Developing equity-focused and gender-responsive National Evaluation policies.
The “2015 evaluation torch” that can/should be customized to the local culture/language/context will symbolize that we are united in strengthening evaluation, and specifically:
- We honour the same ideals of social equity and gender equality in evaluation
- We strive for excellence in evaluation
- We carry messages (the torch) traveling from evaluation summit to evaluation summit, and the flame grows stronger with the messages each site adds to it
- We celebrate our profession, our partnership and 2015 International Year of Evaluation
We encourage every evaluation gathering to include:
- A ceremony of bringing in the Evaluation Torch (created locally in each gathering, or using/adapting the attached virtual one)
- Use the evaluation torch to brand the festivities you create locally—e.g. agenda, messages, slides, etc
- A process of discussing messages about the four EvalYear themes received from previous evaluation gatherings, and generating new messages to share with following evaluation gatherings
- A ceremony for passing on the Evaluation Torch to other evaluation gatherings
We encourage you to let everybody know about events that you plan to do during EvalYear via EvalYear 2015 map at https://evalyear.crowdmap.com/ , as well as by communicating them to Asela Kalugampitiya, EvalPartners Executive Coordinator, at aselakalugampitiya@yahoo.ie
We also encourage you to take pictures and videos to share along with your messages, and post them at EvalYear 2015 map at https://evalyear.crowdmap.com/ or send us links as you upload them on your websites and/or YouTube, so we can, in turn, share them with our EvalPartners community.
Let’s get ready for EvalYear 2015!
