Preparation and Design

If the rapid gender review identified significant gender concerns that need to be addressed, then the following are key question for ensuring gender-responsive design:

1.  Did the TOR of the gender specialist include key gender and public market questions/issues highlighted by the rapid review especially to identify gender-based needs, constraints and opportunities?

2.  Were both women and men affected by the project included in the stakeholder consultations?

3.  Were separate women and men focus groups organized to enable women to voice their views separately from the men?

4.  Was the prioritization of gender-targeted activities within project components done in consultation with both women and men who are expected to benefit from the project?

5.  Were gender-related public market issues that need to be addressed identified? Were approaches for addressing the gender-related issues identified and developed?

6.  Were indicators developed to measure progress on gender-related issues within the relevant project components?
