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
Join MEASURE Evaluation for a one-hour webinar on May 20 at 9am EDT. The webinar will highlight effective health information systems (HIS) strengthening interventions to improve data quality and data use in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).
Despite significant resources invested in developing national HIS, the actual use of high-quality data to make informed decisions remains a challenge. In the DRC, MEASURE Evaluation has been working with the Ministry of Public Health and the National Malaria Control Program to improve data quality and increase the use of malaria information at all levels of the health system. MEASURE Evaluation used the Health Information System Strengthening Model to identify and prioritize interventions to strengthen elements of the HIS, including the rollout and implementation of the electronic routine health information platform (DHIS 2), building local capacity in monitoring and evaluation (M&E), and establishment of 77 centers of excellence to improve facility-level health information generation and use.
This webinar will discuss the outcomes of priority HIS strengthening interventions in the DRC, with particular focus on how data was used to assess data quality, generate health statistics, develop information products, and review and interpret findings. The presenters will also discuss best practices and lessons learned in using data to improve an HIS and drive data-informed decision making to improve health programs.
Register to attend the webinar.
