INFORMALITY AND GENDER DYNAMICS IN TRIPOLIâS LABOR MARKET
Care International commissioned a study to examine the experiences of women and men, both Syrian and Lebanese, in Tripoliâs informal labor market. Informality constitutes a major component of the Tripolitan labor market. It is manifested in the form of informal employment as well as in neighborhoods in the form of informal housing. It is within this context that Syrian refugees settled in Tripoli, which, along its metropolitan area, hosted 6 percent of Lebanonâs Syrian refugees in 2015, i.e. around 70 000 registered refugees. 75 percent of refugees are located in Tripoliâs densely inhabited neighborhoods and the rest are located in the Bedawi neighborhood which also hosts a Palestinian Refugee camp (UN Habitat 2016). This form of settlement is accompanied by increased risk, and many - especially women - fall victim to various forms of violence. Amongst many places, this violence occurs at work, for both Syrian and Lebanese women. However, the former suffer an additional layer of violence emanating from racism due to their refugee status.

âFUTURE FOR YOU(TH): YOUNG PEOPLE AS LEADERS OF LIFE SKILLS EDUCATION IN THE BALKANSâ
The final evaluation of the âFuture for You(th): Young people as Leaders of Life Skills Education in the Balkansâ was conducted between December 2023 and March 2024. This end-term evaluation has addressed the full period of the project implementation (March 2021 â February 2024). Its scope covered all four target countries (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Kosovo and Albania) and main project beneficiaries (partner organizations, institutional representatives, teachers, youth, parents, movement leaders, etc.).
The evaluation process employed a mixed-methods approach with a non-experimental design. Its purpose was to assess the intervention's impact on advancing gender equality, examining shifts in cultural norms, behaviors and attitudes, and power dynamics, along with changes in participation, access to resources, and policy adjustments. It also aimed to summarize the main findings, conclusions and recommendations to inform the project's design and implementation phase.
The evaluation process was based on OECD-DAC evaluation criteria, but the priority was given to relevance, effectiveness, (immediate) impact and sustainability of the intervention. The rest of the criteria were not prioritized considering the given time frame, budget and purpose of the evaluation.
The project evaluation has embedded gender-responsive approaches and human rights frameworks from its inception. This approach was instrumental in establishing a holistic evaluation framework, with the aim of ensuring that these aspects were not treated as peripheral concerns but rather integral components of the project's core objectives and activities.
The data collection process comprised a desk review of relevant documents, semi-structured interviews with key informants, focus groups involving young individuals, and validation sessions to confirm clarity and authenticate key findings with project partners and other stakeholders. Data triangulation involved consolidating various methods and sources, thereby enhancing credibility through cross-referencing information from diverse origins.
Key limitations in the evaluation included a lack of representation from policymakers in some countries, restricted involvement of young individuals not engaged in BMCs and limited participation of young law offenders and professionals from youth at risk centers in the evaluation process. Related findings from the informants were cross-referenced with other information extracted from reviewed documents to mitigate potential bias.
Young men and women who participated in a greater number of project activities, including workshops or events related to campaigns, demonstrated more gender-equal attitudes towards gender roles and norms, violence, gender equality. All young people have increased their knowledge in sexual and reproductive health. Parents of BMC members have confirmed that the BMC program serves as a vehicle for continuous and holistic personal growth of their children, positively impacting diverse aspects of their lives.
School staff and professionals from juvenile correctional centers have gained qualitative content and the necessary competencies to effectively present crucial topics to youth in a non-formal manner that aligns with the needs of young people.
BMCs have progressed to comprehensive resource centers, providing safe spaces where young individuals can openly discuss their most sensitive concerns and receive professional referrals to address their diverse needs.
The project has managed to reach out to a remarkable number of people. The partners organized campaigns at the local level, resulting in the implementation of 35 school-based initiatives that reached 9,356 young individuals, and conducted 68 community-based campaigns, engaging with 20,218 citizens spanning across youth and adults alike, significantly increasing awareness on promoting peaceful masculinities, gender equality, and addressing hate speech and intolerance within the targeted demographics.
Despite challenges, such as navigating political instability, the project demonstrated resilience and effectiveness, significantly influencing community attitudes on social issues. It made a substantial impact on policy and practice regarding life skills education, underscoring its commitment to gender equality. Read More...

GenCAP/CARE Rapid Gender Analysis: Unity State, South Sudan
Womenâs lives have only gotten worse following the political and inter-communal violence that has shaken South Sudan to its core since mid-December 2013i. Women have been raped and killed where they had sought shelter, including hospitals and churchesii. In April 2014, fighting in Unity State caused more than 20,000 people from throughout the state to seek refuge in Protection of Civilian centres in Bentiu: the biggest movement of people since the current crisis began. There has been relatively little analysis about the different needs of women, men, boys and girls during the current crisis in Unity.
Rapid gender analysis provides information about the different needs, capacities and coping strategies of women, men, boys and girls in a crisis by examining the relationships between women, men, boys and girls. For the moment, this is only an incomplete, initial analysis of gender relations in Bentiu PoC area. Nevertheless the initial gender analysis and recommendations for more gender sensitive programming should inform programming to make sure we meet the needs and protect women, men, boys and girls.

RAPPORT ETUDE DE BASE ET ANALYSE GENRE PROJET PASEPRO
La stratĂ©gie pluriannuelle 2022-2027 de CARE Cameroun vise Ă toucher 250 000 personnes affectĂ©s par les crises, Ă travers une rĂ©ponse humanitaire sensible au genre. La prĂ©vention et la rĂ©ponse Ă la violence, en particulier aux violences basĂ©es sur le genre (VBG), est un axe central de cette stratĂ©gie. Au vu des nombreux besoins humanitaires non couverts dans la rĂ©gion de lâOuest Cameroun, CARE souhaite Ă©tendre son action humanitaire dans cette rĂ©gion. Câest ainsi quâavec lâappui du Centre de Crise et de Soutien (CDCS), CARE Cameroun en partenariat avec Horizons Femmes mettent en oeuvre le projet dĂ©nommĂ© PASEPRO dans les districts de santĂ© de la Midi et de Santchou sur une pĂ©riode de 15 mois. Ce projet vise spĂ©cifiquement Ă prĂ©venir et rĂ©pondre aux risques de violence, abus et exploitation encourus par les personnes dĂ©placĂ©es internes ainsi que les populations vulnĂ©rables de la communautĂ© dâaccueil Ă travers des mĂ©canismes communautaires et une meilleure coordination des acteurs. Dans une logique dâintĂ©gration transversale du genre, lâĂ©tude de base de ce projet a Ă©tĂ© couplĂ© Ă lâanalyse genre. Cette Ă©tude sâest appuyĂ©e sur des statistiques descriptives secondaires et des donnĂ©es dâenquĂȘte primaires(quantitatives) combinĂ©es Ă des examens structurĂ©s de documents, des groupes de discussion et des entrevues semi-structurĂ©es (qualitatives). Les rĂ©sultats de cette Ă©tude mettent en exergue que le dĂ©placement des personnes Ă la suite des conflits vers les deux dĂ©partements a fortement influencĂ© la division du travail dâaprĂšs 54,39% personnes enquĂȘtĂ©es. Les dĂ©cĂšs enregistrĂ©s au sein des mĂ©nages tout comme les occupations liĂ©es Ă la recherche des moyens de subsistance ont conduit certaines femmes Ă faire Ă©tablir des actes de naissances. Une diminution dans lâaccĂšs aux ressources est constatĂ©e exception faite de lâaccĂšs Ă lâinformation. Ce dĂ©clin dans lâaccĂšs aux ressources tant pour les hĂŽtes que pour les dĂ©placĂ©s interne entraine lâĂ©mergence du travail journalier. Il convient cependant de prĂ©ciser quâavant la crise, les principaux moyens de subsistance Ă©taient : lâagriculture (31,34%), le petit commerce (21,35%) et les travaux journaliers (6,12%) contre respectivement (27,94%) agriculture ; (25,27%) le petit commerce et (16,33%) les travaux journaliers. Une spĂ©cificitĂ© est tout de mĂȘme observĂ©e pour les personnes en situation de handicap qui ont recours Ă la mendicitĂ© bien que lâon observe une tendance au dĂ©sir dâautonomisation pour les personnes de sexe fĂ©minin en situation de handicap. Davantage de femmes (55,87%) que dâhommes (32,65%) estiment pouvoir prendre la dĂ©cision dans lâachat ou la vente des actifs de maniĂšre unilatĂ©rale. Cette tendance ne sâobserve pas pour ce qui concerne la santĂ© oĂč les hommes sont ceux qui prennent la dĂ©cision dans la majoritĂ© des cas. La situation est davantage difficile pour ceux qui en plus de ces identitĂ©s liĂ©es au sexe porte lâidentitĂ© du handicap. Ces derniers sont perçus par la communautĂ© comme des personnes ne pouvant pas exercer le leadership communautaire. Sâagissant de lâaccĂšs aux services, 12,72% des personnes enquĂȘtĂ©es ne disposent dâaucun document dâĂ©tat civil. Seulement 37% des personnes consultĂ©es dans le district de Santchou ont accĂšs aux soins de santĂ©. Il convient Ă©galement de prĂ©ciser que bien que 78,96% des personnes consultĂ©es au cours de cette Ă©tude possĂšdent des comptes Mobile Money seulement 25,43% dâentre elles affirment disposer les comptes Mobile Money enregistrĂ©s Ă leurs noms.

GENDER AND COVID-19 VACCINES Listening to women-focused organizations in Asia and the Pacific
More than a year into the coronavirus pandemic, COVID-19 vaccines are being distributed across at least 176 countries, with over 1.7 billion doses administered worldwide. Combating the pandemic requires equitable distribution of safe and effective vaccines, however, women and girls are impacted by gaps both in the supply side and the demand side that hamper equitable distribution of the vaccine. Evidence reveals that 75 per cent of all vaccines have gone to just 10 countries, and only 0.3 per cent of doses have been administered in low-income countries. Very few of COVID-19 vaccines are going to those most vulnerable. The vaccine rollout in Asia and the Pacific has been relatively slow and staggered amid secondary waves of the virus. India, despite being the largest vaccine developer, has only vaccinated 3 per cent of the population and continues to battle a variant outbreak that, at its peak, was responsible for more than half of the worldâs daily COVID-19 cases and set a record-breaking pace of about 400,000 cases per day.5However, the small Pacific nation of Nauru, reported a world record administering the first dose to 7,392 people, 108 per cent of the adult population within four weeks. Bhutan also set an example by vaccinating 93 per cent of its eligible population in less than two weeks. That success could be at risk, given the situation in India and the suspended export of vaccines. Read More...
