| Short Summary |
How can the Gender Evaluation Methodology (GEM) be used to determine whether information and communications technologies (ICTs) are really improving women's lives? GEM is a toolkit for incorporating a gender analysis into evaluations of ICT projects. This evaluation tool targets ICT practitioners who have a commitment to gender equality and who are searching for appropriate gender analysis tools and frameworks for their ICT initiatives. The toolkit comprises four main sections: an overview of the evaluation process; strategies for integrating a gender analysis into all stages of planning an ICT project evaluation; instructions for designing a gender-sensitive information-gathering strategy and for reporting on the findings; and suggested follow-up on the results of a gender-sensitive evaluation. GEM also contains concept documents, reference documents, bibliographies, links and a glossary. The kit was field-tested in Latin America, Asia, Africa and Europe and revised based on feedback from the testing phase. The full resource is also available in Spanish at: http://www.apcwomen.org/gem/esp/home.htm The manual on its own is available in French (1,350 KB) at: http://www.apcwomen.org/gem/pdf/Version_PDF_ISBN_Frances.pdf and in Portuguese (1,350 KB) at: http://www.apcwomen.org/gem/pdf/GEMPORTUGUES.pdf |
