Evaluation of UN Women's work on the Care Economy in East and Southern Africa - Evaluation Report
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.

This article focused on the story of community living in a wildlife corridor that links India and Nepal, namely the Khata Corridor, which bridges Bardiya National Park of Nepal and Katarnia Wildlife Sanctuary of Uttar Pradesh, India.
This article revealed how the wildlife mobility in the corridor affects community livelihoods, mobility, and social inclusion, with a sense of differential impacts on farming and marginalised communities.

The Covid-19 pandemic, like other major crises, has left already vulnerable groups such as women and children even more vulnerable. The pandemic has exacerbated challenges across various facets of social and economic life, such as domestic violence, female labour force participation, and access to healthcare, information, and financial protection, to name a few.
To ensure a holistic recovery to the Covid-19 crisis, it is essential to address these gender gaps. The first step is to be certain that we are accurately measuring the impacts and consequences of the crisis on women and other vulnerable groups. This is a key function of the Global Evaluation Initiative’s thematic focus on Gender and Inclusion.
This webinar will feature research on the gendered impacts of Covid-19 from across South Asia. Presenters will explore the evidence on the differential impacts of the pandemic from Bangladesh, India, and Indonesia, and how learnings from these evaluations can inform recovery and further enhance the socio-economic security of vulnerable women across contexts.
This webinar is part of the Islamic Development Bank’s (IsDB) Evaluation Symposium 2022, centred around the theme of ‘Reshaping Evaluation Through the Lens of Recovery’. The symposium will bring together experts and practitioners to focus on the use of evaluation knowledge and tools to promote effective development and policy-making.
