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.

Few topics inspire as much confusion and debate as systemic change. What is it? How do you measure it? Does it even matter?
Assessing changes in systems might be more doable than you think. This webinar will explore a back-to-basics approach to assessing system change.
In November 2019, thirty results measurement specialists, managers and consultants got together in Bangkok. They recognised that many programmes find assessing and reporting changes in systems challenging. To help programmes get unstuck, the group discussed a back-to-basics approach to assessing changes in systems, applying it in a workshop setting to cases from participants’ programmes.
The approach is based on what programmes are actually doing and learning from assessing changes in systems in practice. It can be:
The speakers will walk through the approach using examples from the 2019 workshop, including PRISMA in Indonesia and Skills for Jobs (S4J) in Albania.
An open discussion will follow and we encourage comments and examples from practitioners assessing changes in systems in their own contexts.
