Evaluate

Monitoring, Evaluation and the Gender Question was published in the Daily Graphic, a Ghanaian newspaper. The article discusses the role monitoring and evaluation play in gender equality and social inclusion.

On the goal of achieving gender equality, author Adele Gatley writes:

All stakeholders have a role to play in this – Government, development partners, civil society, academia, research institutions, the media, political parties and the ordinary Ghanaian. Given the fact that the challenges are multifaceted, gender equality will only be achieved if there are concerted, consistent and sustainable efforts by all.

Regional Forum on the Use of Gender Data in Subnational Decision Making

Evaluate

MEASURE Evaluation recently hosted a ‘Regional Forum on the Use of Gender Data in Subnational Decision Making’ with participants from Rwanda, Botswana, and Zambia.

Futures Group organized and managed the forum. An excerpt from the report on the event describes the primary focus of the forum:

This Regional Forum demonstrates gender analysis and the use of gender-sensitive indicators to measure change to health programs can and should be done by everyone working within the health sector.

Gender Differences in the Use of Insecticide-Treated Nets After a Universal Free Distribution Campaign in Kano State, Nigeria: Post-Campaign Survey Results

Background
Recent expansion in insecticide-treated net (ITN) distribution strategies range from targeting pregnant women and children under five and distributing ITN at antenatal care and immunization programmes, to providing free distribution campaigns to cover an entire population.

Analysis is needed to assess the effects of gender on uptake of key malaria control interventions. A recent post-universal free ITN distribution campaign survey in Kano State, Nigeria offered an opportunity to look at gender effects on ITN use.

Methods
A post-campaign survey was conducted three to five months after the campaign in Kano State, Nigeria from 19 October to 4 November, 2009, on a random sample…
