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.

What future-fit skills are essential for young evaluators to lead tomorrow's dynamic evaluation landscape?

Future of Evaluation dialogue:

The Future of Evaluation dialogue brings together leading evaluation experts and leaders, young and emerging evaluators and new voices in the evaluation community and beyond, to explore how innovative approaches and adaptations can make evaluation more influential given the evolving global landscape. By fostering dynamic knowledge exchange, these dialogues seek to enhance evaluation's relevance, ensuring it remains vital for informed decision-making and sustainable development, today and in the future.

Building on the momentum from the Summit for the Future of Evaluation, and aligning with the #EvalTorch relay, the Future of Evaluation dialogue provides a platform for collaborative learning to future-proof evaluation. 

Each monthly session will be strategically linked to key international days, ensuring thematic relevance and amplified outreach by aligning with global observances. This dialogue series is a cornerstone of the #Eval4Action 2.0 launch, brought to life in partnership with EvalPartners Global Evaluation Agenda 2.0 and the 3 Horizons initiative led by the International Evaluation Academy.

"What future-fit skills are essential for young evaluators to lead tomorrow's dynamic evaluation landscape?"

REGISTER

Description

As evaluation evolves in response to rapid technological advancement, growing complexity, and increasingly interconnected global challenges, the competencies required of future evaluators are also changing. This dialogue explores the future-fit skills that young evaluators need to thrive and lead in a dynamic evaluation landscape. Beyond traditional methodological expertise, the discussion will examine emerging competencies such as systems thinking, adaptive and complexity-aware evaluation, data literacy, artificial intelligence and digital technologies, evaluative foresight, strategic communication and engagement, and collaborative leadership. It will also consider the importance of ethical reasoning, cultural responsiveness, equity-focused practice, and the ability to work across disciplines and sectors. Bringing together experienced practitioners and emerging professionals, the dialogue will reflect on how capacity development, mentorship, innovation, and intergenerational partnerships can prepare the next generation of evaluators to generate relevant evidence, navigate uncertainty, and contribute to more informed, inclusive, and future-oriented decision-making.
