Gender and Wash Monitoring Tool

Plan International Australia (Plan Australia) would like to share the Gender and WASH Monitoring Tool (GWMT). Promoting gender equality demands significant attention in every WASH intervention as gender relations are integral to the effectiveness and sustainability of WASH. The literature suggests that measuring change in the context of gender relations presents ongoing challenges for monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL). Plan has taken the opportunity to develop an explicit focus on monitoring changes in gender relations in WASH. We are continuously looking to improve the tool, share lessons and challenges identified to date, and invite reflections and feedback. We hope you find the GWMT helpful and inspiring for your own work in gender and WASH.
