Synthesis of IDRC’s use of women’s empowerment indicators
95%data completenessWomen’s empowerment and gender analysis is one of the key priorities for IDRC. Yet, most projects supported by the Centre lack common methods and indicators to measure how they are contributing to women’s empowerment. It has been a challenge to measure how well different types of projects or project-implementation strategies contribute to empowering women. This synthesis will examine twelve recent IDRC-funded projects in the agriculture and food security sector, all of which have a strong gender focus, to assess two major tools: the Women Empowerment in Agriculture Index (pro-WEAI) and the Women in Livestock Empowerment Index (WELI). The synthesis is expected to generate results and lessons on the projects’ achievements, and on the use of the tools, with key recommendations for their effective use in other programs. The information will also feed directly into the work at the CGIAR (formerly the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research) on women’s empowerment indices and their application across various projects and initiatives.

UN Women, ICJ & OHCHR Access to Justice for women in Asia - Access to Justice for Women in Asia
95%data completenessThe project "Enhancing Access to Justice for Women in Asia and the Pacific. Bridging the gap between formal and informal systems through women's empowerment" is a five-year program with an overarching goal to enhance access to justice for women in both formal and informal justice systems. he project is built on previous experiences The objective of the project is to build on previous global and regional work on Access to Justice for women e.g. The work and experience made by ICJ under the European funded ASEAN program. During the project ICJ consolidated network of lawyers working on Human rights cases in the region and established relationships with courts across the region. ICJ initiated regional judicial dialogues with senior judges in South East Asia. One important outcome was the development and adoption, in 2016, of the Bangkok General Guidance on Applying a Gender Perspective for judges. ICJ has also experiences from intervening in emblematic cases regarding the interpretation of and application of laws that expressively discriminate against women and LGBT people. The project also builds on the experiences made in the regional project UN Women CEDAW South Est Asia regional program 2011-2016 focusing on knowledge generation and exchange, stock taking and priority setting for advancing the implementation of CEDAW in the region. The overall goal was reduced discrimination against women in South-East Asia and enhanced South-East Asia regional processes that facilitate CEDAW implementation. In addition, the UN Office of the High Commissioner for human rights (OHCHR) regional office has the global mandate for human rights and supports justice processes that are consistent with international law and good practices and brings a comparative advantage in supporting judicial reform efforts to protect human rights. OHCHR has expertise and experiences to address issues related to womens access to justice. The UN Women project included important research in several countries with plural legal systems and concluded that there are substantial gaps in women's access to justice in countries with plural legal systems. In addition, negative gender stereotyping and discriminatory attitudes among judges, prosecutors and police were pervasive. Discriminatory legislation is another serious obstacle for Women's access to justice. The project has a geographical focus on 6 countries in Asia and Pacific: Indonesia, Philippines and Timor Leste, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Pacific Island Countries. Against this background the A2J project has he project has three specific outputs: 1.) Advocacy is conducted to promote the adoption of domestic laws and court decisions in the target countries consistent with international human rights law and standards, including CEDAW 2.) Gender discriminatory attitudes and stereotyped behaviours towards women are acknowledged and addressed by formal and informal justice providers in the target countries. 3.) Grassroots women's organizations and community-based women's organizations are empowered and well positioned to document, monitor, liase and facilitate interaction with formal and informal justice providers. The programme results are based on the theory of change that if there is: i. A legal enabling environment for women to access gender-responsive justice is created by advocating for laws and court decisions that are consistent with international human rights law and standards, including the CEDAW; ii. Plural justice systems are gender-responsive because gaps between formal and informal settings are bridged through increased understanding and awareness of justice system providers of womens rights; iii. Grassroots womens organizations and community-based womens organizations are empowered and well positioned to document and facilitate interactions between and with formal and informal justice providers, and their resilience is enhanced to build a just and sustainable future; Then, womens access to justice will be enhanced in the Asia Pacific region.

Girls Not Brides 2020 - 2026
75%data completenessGNBs målsättning under deras nya strategiska plan för sekretariatet 2026-2030, är att 2030 ha bidragit till att förhindra att 7 miljoner flickor gifts bort innan de har fyllt 18 år. GNB avser att bidra till detta genom två ömsesidigt förstärkande strategier: 1. Globalt arbete för att säkerställa mer resurser och effektfulla politiska åtaganden. Säkerställa att barnäktenskap är prioriterat i internationella och sektorspecifika agendor samt värna existerande dedikerad finansiering och bidra till ökad resursmobilisering för arbetet mot barnäktenskap. GNB avser att säkerställa att målsättningar om att motverka barnäktenskap prioriteras i minst 3 internationella agendor, ramverk eller finansieringsmekanismer, och säkerställa åtaganden om minst 1 miljard USD i finansiering för arbete mot barnäktenskap. 2. Fokusering vad gällande resultat på landnivå för att påskynda framsteg. Genom investeringar i medlemsdrivna samarbetskoalitioner i prioriterade länder avser GNB bidra till förändrade maktstrukturer, stärkt lagstiftning, ökad implementering av befintliga lagar och policys, samt stödjande normförändringar. GNB avser att bidra till mätbara förbättringar vad gällande minskad förekomst av barnäktenskap i 10 utvalda länder. De två strategierna är ömsesidigt förstärkande: politiska åtaganden på regional och global nivå är en förutsättning för ökad finansiering av arbete som motverkar barnäktenskap, samt ansvarsutkrävande på nationell nivå. Framsteg på nationell nivå inspirerar och bidrar till best practices för likstämmiga länder samt är en förutsättning för politiskt engagemang och ledarskap på regional och global nivå. För att uppnå GNBs övergripande målsättning kommer organisationen att tillämpa fyra ömsesidigt beroende huvudsakliga taktiker: 1. Mobilisera rörelseaktörer som arbetar för att motverka barnäktenskap, kring gemensamma agendor, koordinerade strategier och delat inflytande. 2. Utrusta medlemmar, nationella koalitioner och andra relevanta förändringsaktörer med de verktyg och data som de behöver för att genomföra effektivt evidensbaserat arbete för att motverka barnäktenskap. 3. Påverka och bidra till politiskt engagemang på samtliga nivåer, kombinerat med systemförändringar på landnivå i de kontexter där det har bedömts finnas bäst förutsättningar. 4. Finansiera nationella medlemsledda koalitioner och värna (samt bidra till ökad) internationell finansiering för arbete mot barnäktenskap. För verksamhetsår 2026, vilket blir GNBs första år under den nya strategiska inriktningen, kommer fokus ligga på att ansvarsfullt fasa ut arbete som prioriterats i linje med föregående strategiska plan, och börja lägga grunden för den verksamhet som skall generera resultat under denna strategiperiod. Verksamheten som GNB avser att genomföra under 2026 förväntas bidra till följande exempel på resultat: - Etableringen av ett internationellt kollektiv av minst 10 framträdande ledarprofiler för arbete mot barnäktenskap som bidrar till politiska prioriteringar från minst åtta regeringar, samt stärkt samarbete med minst 10 ledande organisationer. - Hänförbara initiala resultat på landnivå i Malawi som GNBs första accelerator-land. Förväntade resultat är bland annat policyförbättringar, ökad inhemsk finansiering och implementering av den nationella strategin för att motverka barnäktenskap i minst två distrikt som ett resultat av Girls Not Brides Malawis arbete. - Framtagna genomförandeplaner för de resterande 9 prioriterade samarbetsländerna (Nigeria, Uganda, Kenya, Burkina Faso, Nepal, Bangladesh, Indien, Mexico och Colombia) med tidiga tecken på policyframsteg och stärkt kapacitet och ökad samordning hos de nationella GNB-koalitionerna. För verksamheten i Kenya, Uganda och Bangladesh förväntas följande resultat uppnås av verksamhet som genomförs 2026: Kenya - Ett effektivt, inflytelserikt och evidens-baserat civilsamhällesdeltagande i färdigställandet och lanseringen av Kenyas nationella strategi mot skadliga sedvänjor. - Ett stärkt nationellt partnerskap i Kenya (Girls Not Brides Kenya) som representerar 135 civilsamhällesorganisationer, som i utökad utsträckning kan driva gemensamt och koordinerat (mer effektfullt) påverkansarbete och utkräva ansvar gentemot ansvarsbärare i arbetet mot barnäktenskap. Uganda - Det nationella partnerskapet i Uganda (Girls Not Brides Uganda) som representerar 120 nationella medlemsaktörer och organisationer, har stärkts ekonomiskt och tekniskt för förbättrat ledarskap, kommunikation och effektivare påverkansarbete. - Stärkt evidens och lärande kring effektivt civilsamhällesdeltagande i genomförandet av Ugandas nationella strategi för att motverka barnäktenskap och ungdomsgraviditeter. Bangladesh - Ökad kunskap om huvudsakliga drivkrafter, geografiska utsattheter, rådande policyramverk och implementeringsgap samt möjligheter för accelererat arbete för att motverka barnäktenskap i Bangladesh. Utifrån denna kartläggning och analys, positionera det nationella partnerskapet i Bangladesh inför fördjupat arbete under resterande strategiperiod.

Provide a Safe Place for 15 Girls to Live in Nepal
85%data completenessAt Orchid Garden Nepal, young girls come to school everyday but are facing sexual abuse in the home. In some cases the parents are working until late evening and the abuse is at the hands of neighborhood boys, in the most extreme cases, it is a family member. We noticed grades falling off considerably when this began and have now moved some of these girls to a hostel where they can be safe. We need support to continue to provide a safe place for these young girls to live.
