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.

Tara Prasad Gnyawali Article - 2025
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.

Join DME for Peace on Thursday, April 25th at 10:00am EDT, as Rotary Fellow, Michelle Helman, hosts the M&E Thursday Talks to lead discussion on “Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning from the Inside-Out.”
Participatory evaluation, development, and peacebuilding methods aim to decolonize top-down approaches by integrating inclusive, bottom-up practice which can unintentionally reinforce asymmetrical power dynamics. Michelle Helman will address how applying ‘inside-out’ evaluation tools in collaborative monitoring, evaluation, and learning (ME&L) practice can transform this obstacle into opportunity.
Michelle draws from experience monitoring the 2016 Colombian Peace Accord with Kroc Institute and her own research on peacebuilding evaluation as a Rotary Peace Fellow. She encourages participants to examine, engage with, and re-imagine their own tools and practice. She will offer opportunities to explore how, together, we can co-create definitions of commonly used vocabulary, check our assumptions, and ground theory in lived experience to design and integrate collaborative evaluation tools.
A learning outcome for participants is to have increased awareness of- and the capacity to- engage in collaborative ME&L, from the inside-out. Following the presentation, participants are encouraged to ask questions and discuss how to best apply these skills within their own practice.
