Evaluation
Furthering its work in research, the team began to explore the field of evaluations, specifically Gender Transformative Evaluations. While the teams at ISST have been undertaking evaluations since its inception, the organization made this a niche starting in 2010. A four-year-long project with IDRC and the Ford Foundation on ‘Engendering Policy Through Evaluation’ played a pivotal role at this time and solidified ISST’s position as a key player in the field of Gender Transformative Evaluations.
