To address the considerable data gap on gender and water issues at
the global level, WWAP has launched the project for
gender-sensitive water monitoring, assessment and reporting, which
consists of four phases:
Phase 1:
Production of the toolkit for gender sensitive water monitoring.
This contains a list of high-priority indicators, a methodology for collecting
sex-disaggregated data, a guideline for data gathering in the field and a questionnaire for practitioners to
collect sex- disaggregated data.
Phase 2:
The toolkit will be testedin selected pilot areas
in different regionsof the world,
in cooperation withnational authorities,
research institutes and international organizations.
Phase 3:
The indicators and methodologywill be validated againstthe results from phase 2,and after the evaluationthe final results will
be widely disseminated.
Phase 4:Capacity building will be implemented by a series of training modules specifically
tailored for multiple users, such as technical staff of developing agencies, water-experts of national institutions,
development practitioners.
