Gender Equality Capacity Assessment Tool
Best Practice
Promoter Information:
Abstract:
The UN Women Training Centre (TC) is dedicated to supporting the UN and other stakeholders to realize commitments to gender equality, women’s empowerment and women’s rights through transformative training and learning. It aims to become the leading UN center that contributes, through training for gender equality, to building a society that respects and promotes human rights for all women and men. The Centre has developed and is making available to all agencies a simple and easy to use tool for assessment of capacity in promoting gender equality and the empowerment of women for the UN System and other partners. It is, therefore, a tool related to the promotion of women’s economic power. To make it easier to implement within large organizations, the questionnaire is general. However, it can and should be adapted according to the context and mandate of each agency. The Capacity Assessment Tool is meant to support Gender and Human Resources specialists in each organization and contains guidelines for implementation, gathering of information, consolidation and analysis of data, development of reports and follow up. The questionnaire is only one tool or means of taking stock of individual staff capacity. The information gathered with this tool can be complemented with more qualitative methods such as interviews, focus groups, and systematic observation.
