Gender and the COVID-19 response in MENA. A regional / multi-country evaluation
Overview
Rationale: With the COVID-19 pandemic having affected UNICEF work and humanitarian response for about a year and a half, and with the new CCC having been recently released, this evaluation in timely in looking back at how country offices in the region considered gender in planning and implementing the humanitarian response, and in looking forward at how gender considerations might be taken into account in preparedness plans and in future humanitarian responses. The evaluation will be used mainly for learning, advocacy and for informing UNICEF’s way forward in making sure gender is included in humanitarian responses. Users of the evaluation are mainly UNICEF COs, RO and HQ.
Objectives: The evaluation has the following objectives:
- Assess how the country level response to COVID-19 aligned to the Gender Action Plan, to the gender benchmarks identified in the Core Commitments for Children and to the Five actions for gender equality in the COVID-19 response ; the capacity response of the COs’ teams and the processes followed; and what has been the quality of the response;
- Look into lessons learned and opportunities for improvement, across the gender benchmarks – especially in the context of the recent launch of the new CCC, and of the role that gender has in its roll-out, in preparedness plans, and in humanitarian response.
- To distill two clear programmatic and two institutional recommendations at the country level, and two for the regional office.
