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.

Event Description

On the occasion of its 25th anniversary, F3E would like to reflect the progress that has been made in evaluating international cooperation and solidarity actions since its creation, trying to understand the current challenges of evaluation and to foresee the most innovative approaches and perspectives for the years to come.


During these two days, you will have the opportunity to discover how research studies, evaluations and, more broadly, approaches that question your action can be powerful tools to transform individuals and organizations, to renew their strategic vision and to improve the management of their actions.
Throughout these meetings, you will be accompanied by members and partners of F3E network, consultants involved in the network, but also specialists and practitioners from all over the world who are experimenting the most innovative methodological approaches in the service of social change.


As a reminder, F3E is a French network organization working with NGOs and local and regional authorities involved in international solidarity and cooperation. It aims to strengthen the quality and the impact of their interventions by supporting them on project management, monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) practices.

NB: Most of the event will be held in French only. Translation service available only during the plenary panel discussions.
