- Summary
- Gender Action prepared this gender toolkit for civil society organizations conducting research, monitoring and advocacy on the international financial institutions (IFIs) and commercial banks in order to support efforts to ‘engender' their work. The toolkit is a product of Gender Action's ‘Gender Capacity Building Project for International Finance Watchers' sponsored by Oxfam Novib. While conducting gender audits of project partners, Gender Action noted the urgent need for concrete, easy-to-use, gender analysis tools, sex-disaggregated data and backgroundinformation on key gender and development topics. This toolkit aims to fill that need for our IF watcher partners and other organizations seeking to integrate a gender perspective into their activities.
