Evaluation of UN Women’s Work on the Care Economy in East and Southern Africa 

A regional study of gender equality observatories in West and Central Africa, carried out by Claudy Vouhé for UN Women

Sources: UN Women

This regional study offers an inventory and analysis of the legal framework of gender observatories, their attributions, functions and missions. It is based on exchanges with 21 countries, in particular the eleven countries that have created observatories. It compares the internal organisation and budgets of the observatories between countries, looks at operational practices, in particular the degree of involvement in the collection and use of data, and identifies obstacles and good practices in terms of influencing pro-gender equality public policies. Finally, the study draws up a list of strategic recommendations intended for observatories, supervisory bodies and technical and financial partners.

Seeking information on Gender and Evaluation Online Courses

Hello all. I am Anweshaa Ghosh, currently working as a Research analyst with ISST, New Delhi. We have begun to work on an Online Course of Gender Transformative Evaluation and  would really appreciate it if you could share information on any other Gender and Evaluation Online Courses (other than the ones being run by UNWomen and EvalPartners) which you might have taken in the past or know of currently. Any useful links on the same would be much appreciated. 

Thank you.

Hi Anweshaa, 

I came across this resource a little while ago: https://www.measureevaluation.org

They are Health-focused, but the principles could be useful to you. Here is a newer publication from them, for example: Integrating Gender into M&E.

Best of luck!
