Measuring Women’s Agency, Empowerment, and Norms in Impact Evaluations
Online
Sobre el evento
Gender outcomes—agency, empowerment, and norms—can often seem nebulous and hard to capture through concrete quantitative and qualitative indicators. What does it mean for women to have agency? Can women’s empowerment be measured? How can we know if social norms have changed? These are some of the questions to consider when designing and evaluating a program aimed at transforming gender outcomes.
J-PAL’s Gender sector aims to address inequality by objectively measuring outcomes that are often socially-embedded and seemingly abstract. J-PAL affiliates and staff from all over the world have also produced a Practical Guide to Measuring Women’s Empowerment in Impact Evaluations for this purpose.
In this lecture-based webinar, Shagun Sabarwal will draw on this body of work to discuss strategies to measure gender outcomes. Join us to explore ways in which we can apply measurement tools to generate rich evidence on improving gender outcomes.
