Who is this toolkit for?
This toolkit is for:
- public administration staff;
- policy officers;
- monitoring and evaluation officers; and,
- policymakers in the EU and EU Member States
This toolkit is useful for commissioners of evaluations and evaluators.
The toolkit will also benefit:
those who manage, implement or evaluate funds at the EU and Member State levels, as well as at the national, regional and local levels – particularly funds that establish gender equality as a horizontal principle.
While this toolkit focuses on evaluations, it also provides relevant guidance for those conducting and contributing to impact assessments and strategic foresight.
The toolkit can also be an important point of reference for other stakeholders, such as non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and gender equality experts. It can support them in assessing the performance of authorities in delivering on their commitments and obligations to identify and assess gender impacts, including the gender implications of environmental issues.
The toolkit will also be useful for awareness-raising and advocacy activities promoting gender-responsive evaluation, the assessment of gender impacts and the integration of gender equality under the European Green Deal. Some parts of the toolkit also provide inspiration for evaluating the programmes of NGOs.
