Our regular news roundup, featuring the latest reports and webinars from our gender financing project – focused on gender equality funding in Kenya, Guatemala and Nepal. Also a reminder about our consultation on proposed changes to the Aid Transparency Index methodology.
A lack of clear and consistent information on the funding and effectiveness of gender equality work makes it difficult to track progress on gender equality commitments in Guatemala, Kenya and Nepal. the Gender Financing Project has just published research mapping national and international funding flows in the three countries – and we found it remains difficult to paint a comprehensive picture of funding for gender equality, and to know if donors’ gender financing is making a difference. This blog is also available in Spanish, Nepali and K’iche’.
Catch up on our webinar to learn how the Kenyan government and international donors are funding gender equality in Kenya and where key stakeholders can work together to improve the transparency of this funding.
This is the fourth Data Diary in our Gender Financing series. Linet Juma shares her experiences, and insights gained from her research, on the need for more sustainable systems to generate and share better gender data.
Our regular roundup of news on aid and development transparency – featuring research and interviews on DFIs, transparency, ESG and community accountability. Plus an update on our Aid Transparency Index method review and an opportunity for women’s economic empowerment consultants.
Last year we initiated a methodology review process for our Aid Transparency Index, with the aim of updating the assessment approach in order to ensure we adapt to new developments and continue to raise the bar for aid transparency. Following a period of research, online surveys and consultation meetings, we have developed a proposal for changes to the approach. We would appreciate any comment on our consultation paper.
