Why It Matters

Recommended Actions

• Require the GAD Focal Point System to (a) exert efforts to come up with a database on sex-disaggregated data or perform gender analysis to ensure that allocation of funds on GAD-related PPAs are not based on incorrect assumptions and stereotypes

• And (c) create a Monitoring and Evaluation Team to evaluate the outcomes of the GAD PPAs.
