We aim to identify a range of indicators or progress markers that have been used to measure contributions to gender equality by programs outside of the agricultural sector. It will focus specifically on measures that have been used to monitor or evaluate â??gender transformativeâ?? programs and it will then consider what can be learned in order to more accurately measure advances toward gender equality. This includes rethinking not only what is measured (the substantive content), but also how we measure, when we measure and who measures
