Gender Equity & Social Inclusion
We help organisations integrate gender-sensitive strategies into programs, ensuring that equity, empowerment, and social justice are central to decision-making.
At Research Wise, we are deeply committed to promoting gender equity and social inclusion across all aspects of policy and program implementation. We partner with governments, NGOs, and development organizations to ensure marginalized groups, particularly women and girls, have equal opportunities, representation, and access to resources, driving meaningful social change.
Gender Analysis & Mainstreaming
We conduct comprehensive gender analyses to understand disparities, power dynamics, and barriers to inclusion within policies and programs. We also guide organizations in integrating gender-sensitive approaches throughout their projects, ensuring transformative impacts rather than surface-level interventions.
Impact Evaluation of Gender Programs
Our rigorous evaluations measure the true impact of gender-focused programs, highlighting successes and areas needing improvement. We employ both qualitative methods (focus groups, in-depth interviews) and quantitative tools (surveys, RCTs) to assess how interventions affect gender equality and social inclusion.
Inclusive Policy & Program Design
We assist in designing policies and programs that actively promote social inclusion, addressing barriers faced by marginalized groups such as women, persons with disabilities, ethnic minorities, and LGBTQ+ individuals. Our expertise ensures interventions are equitable, responsive, and sustainable.
Capacity Building & Training
We provide tailored training and capacity-building workshops to strengthen organizations' understanding of gender equity and social inclusion. Our programs build internal expertise, enabling organizations to implement and sustain inclusive practices independently.
Advocacy & Policy Influence
We support advocacy efforts by providing evidence-based research that strengthens campaigns for gender equity and inclusion. Our reports, case studies, and position papers influence policymakers and stakeholders, advancing the social justice agenda.
At Research Wise, we adopt an intersectional perspective, recognising that gender equity intersects with other factors such as race, caste, class, and disability. Our solutions are context-specific, culturally sensitive, and rooted in participatory methods, ensuring marginalized voices are heard and respected in decision-making processes.
