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

As the world grapples with the health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, a shadow pandemic of violence against children is quickly emerging. Calls to child helplines and domestic violence hotlines, point to a spike in levels of violence since stay-at-home measures were put in place.
These trends are consistent with data from past humanitarian and economic crises. Faced with limited data, we must rely on existing data to prevent and respond to violence against children during and after the pandemic. To estimate levels of violence during COVID-19, it is important to know to understand the magnitude and nature of violence against children before the pandemic. Data from the Violence Against Children and Youth Surveys (VACS), population-based household surveys, show that children and youth already experienced high rates of physical, sexual and emotional violence, with often devastating immediate and long-term consequences. National governments lead the implementation of the VACS, with support from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as part of the Together for Girls (TfG) partnership. We now have data for over 20 countries and approximately 10% of the world’s population under 24. The VACS generate data for children, adolescents, and young people on the prevalence and incidence of physical, sexual, and emotional violence as well as risk and protective factors, consequences of violence, and access to services. Currently, 10 countries have made their VACS datasets publicly available for secondary analyses. Researchers and practitioners can request access to the datasets through Together for Girls. The available data can help answer important research questions and further our understanding of violence against children. The availability of the datasets for additional analyses is especially important in light of COVID-19 and the significant barriers to primary data collection.
