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.

Evaluation of sexual harassment/women's mobility intervention
Hello all,
Getting back to you with a quick question. Is anyone aware of any interventions that have been evaluated on women's mobility/preventing sexual harassment and assault in public spaces. Public spaces can be anything from streets, public transport, public toilets, conflict affected areas, refugee camps, parks, public recreation areas etc. Could be from any 'sector' such as water and sanitation, transport, urban planning, creative arts and culture, design etc.
If there aren't any evaluated projects-can you at least point me to donor reports, project completion reports etc.
I am looking for evals from both developed and developing countries but a google search is not yielding many results.
Many thanks for your help.
From a very chilly fall afternoon in Washington DC
Best,
Tanya

Hi Rituu,
Certainly! I am researching "What Works" to prevent sexual harassment for a UN agency report. This will inform best practices and evaluation efforts in some of their projects and in the field in general-specifically looking at Asia but wanted to start to see what was out there globally in developed and developing countries.
Thanks for your help Rituu
Best,
Tanya

Hi Tanya,
I can only say that this was part of the reasons for an early departure as CTA in a subcontract arrangement with a German bilateral agency. The agency agreed on my dismissal for 'personal reasons', due to a sexual harassment caused by an external private sector provider in the country (Lomé, Togo). I trust this was a good decision for me, although it might have caused complications for the project that had to search for my successor. "All is well that ends well", sitting at my home desk in preparation for my next assignment :-), Susanne

Hi Tanya,
Have you tried checking the UN Women gender equality evaluation portal? (http://genderevaluation.unwomen.org/en)
I can be a bit tricky because there is no "keyword" for sexual harassment or public spaces but I believe you could find interesting results if you look for campaigns, for example. My guess is that civil society would be a better source of information in this topic than the UN or other big donors.

Hi Tanya! So great to see you here. You might check with the Huairou commission to see if any of their programs have been evaluated. http://huairou.org/safety

There was an initiative of UN Women Brazil in partnership with DfID in Rio de Janeiro about street harassment. I am not sure if it was evaluated but you could contact UN Women Brazil to get to know more about it.

Hi Tanya,
I would encourage you to take a look at the evaluations from UN Women available on our GATE system ( http://gate.unwomen.org/) several of which are likely relevant for your research, including evaluations of Safe Cities programmes. We also maintain a Gender Equality Evaluation Portal (http://genderevaluation.unwomen.org/en) that is searchable that should have some relevant reports as well. Hope this helps.
Best,
Shravanti

Dear Tania
being in this work for nearly decade , non has made any effort or opportunity on this subjects. Have some reasons not to as well do want to
1. Clear methodology is the biggest obstacle.
2. Quality of the Data also issue.
3. Selection of Categories and criteria too is questionable.
Then how it will can proceed. Why this is important us to do at least to conduct a size estimations. We are lauding day basis of VAW and but forgetting we are far behind the facts and numbers.
Other thing? we react to the issues when alarm rings on either by a death of the victim or popular known cases heard by the court of justice. This must stoped. Today the country I live reacted again after the death of 5 year old girl (abused and killed), 10 year old Boy Hacked to death and 3 year old were abused and abandoned in the jungle. But daily even at this moment it is happening most dangerously with a knowledge of the parents and loved once .
I appealed to you concentrate on psychological factors of rapist behaviours in order to eliminate sexual abuses and so we can assured that our love once will be free .
Regards

Hi:
I am not sure how helpful this will be, but in the ELLA Programme we have looked into finding best practices en Latin America on preventing and addressing gender violence. A little bit more broader thatn what you mention but maybe there is something in here that can help youIn here you can find papers
http://ella.practicalaction.org/ella-knowledge/?thema=gender-and-vi...
And in here list of organisations working in Latin America y gender and vioence, femicide and violence, and access to justice ( and also other papers, not authored by the ELLA programme relating to those themes)
