6. Quality preparation and design of activity
Screening tool > actions which can be integrated into the design
Preparatory activities such as Scoping Study where there are likely to be high gender impacts –
ensure analysis of gender issues to be addressed in design
Gender equality objectives if high gender equality impact
Gender sensitive indicators for collection of gender disaggregated data eg training
participants; access to watsan; hygiene activities; membership of committees, organisations
Appropriate gender specialist resources specified in the design or implementing consultants’
team if significant gender impact
Promoting and communicating about gender equality to implementing consultants
especially TLs, counterparts (eg meeting with DGLT yesterday), LGs, community
Do you do this? Have you missed opportunities?
Monitoring implementation of activities for gender outcomes, collecting sex
disaggregated data, looking for successes, making improvements > making sure
implementation complies with any gender design requirements
Do you always do this with regard to gender - and other cross cutting issues?
What do you do if you see that implementation doesn’t comply?
Reports discuss what is being implemented and the outcomes, against the design
requirements
Do you always check that reports refer to the design requirements for gender and other cross cutting
issues?
If the reports don’t, what do you do?
