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.

Event Description

Dear colleagues:

Given the gender inequalities that exist in mobile phone access in many parts of the world, what can be done to reduce bias in phone surveys? Please join us for this upcoming webinar where IDinsight will lead a discussion exploring answers to this question.

Title - Learn from IDinsight how to reduce phone survey bias through inclusion of female respondents (webinar)

Date - Wednesday, April 7th, 2021, at 9 AM ET

Link  - https://www.surveycto.com/events/phone-survey-bias-webinar/ 

Having adapted swiftly to phone surveying in 2020, the team at IDinsight have had a good deal of opportunity to reflect on the process, including concerns around bias. They found that in some survey populations, the level of mobile phone access women in households have is unequal to men, however, there are strategies teams can use to make phone surveys more inclusive and better cater to women. 

Whether you’re specifically interested in surveying women over the phone, or want to minimize respondent gender bias, you’ll learn to improve your phone survey practice by attending this webinar. Gender bias in surveys isn’t a new subject, but having to navigate it over the phone is part of the many challenges we’re looking to address with collaborators in the Safe People + Data Initiative. IDinsight has a wide range of advice drawn from phone survey contexts such as India, Kenya, Uganda, and West Africa, much of which should be generalizable.

In this webinar you’ll learn more about the following in relation to phone surveying:

  • Phone ownership in low income households
  • How to secure the cooperation of male gatekeepers
  • How to protect privacy and maintain confidentiality of responses
  • How to ask sensitive questions
  • What are the types of questions that may not be appropriate to ask women
  • How does the gender of the interviewer affect consent rates
  • Adjusting the time of day of phone surveys to better reach women
  • Insights around qualitative data collection

Participants will gain important insights into the planning and execution stages of phone surveys, to help minimize gender bias. This event will be helpful to those who are new to and experienced with conducting phone surveys and are interested in ways to help improve outcomes.
