Gender Equality and Social Inclusion Self-Assessment Tool

Author: Joanna Mott, Heather Brown, Di Kilsby, Emily Eller

Year: 2021

Publisher: Water for Women Fund and Sanitation Learning Hub

This guidance is for staff of water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) implementation and research projects
and organisations, who are committed to improving the practice of gender equality and social inclusion
(GESI) in their projects and organisations. It is aimed at program managers, GESI advisers, researchers
and any member of staff in your organisation interested in improving GESI practice. The guide details the
specific roles and responsibilities of the contact point (CP), facilitator, participants and supporters of the
self-assessment process.
This is a facilitated self-assessment process. Ideally, one or two independent/external gender/GESI Advisers will help facilitate your organisation through the process. These are referred to throughout this guide as facilitators. The facilitators should be experienced and understand GESI and WASH. They will work with key staff members from your organisation, ideally the GESI staff member/s or staff member/s with the GESI portfolio, acting as the CP.
This is a guide for the facilitators and CP, not for participants. The facilitators and CP will share information to participants prior to the first workshop to prepare them for the process, including sharing some of the appendices.
The process will help review and identify specific, context-appropriate approaches and strategies that will
support GESI transformative practice and outcomes for WASH implementation and research projects, and
within your organisation.
