UN Women rapid assessment tool to evaluate gender equality and women’s empowerment (GEWE) results in humanitarian contexts
May 2020
Find out more about this rapid assessment tool, which has two elements: a data collection tool (in Excel) and this accompanying guidance note. The rapid assessment tool provides a quicker assessment of progress on GEWE results than standard evaluations to enable humanitarian actors to make real-time adjustments to interventions when and where necessary. Application of the tool within UN Women will contribute to strengthening monitoring and evaluation processes to further adapt humanitarian programming to results. It will also enhance the capacity of partners (including evaluators) to provide rapid, near-time assessments to ensure a gender-responsive and principled humanitarian response. The tool is designed to collect data and analyse results during and after programme implementation across the three key areas related to women’s empowerment in humanitarian action.
