Abstract:
The evaluation team finds that the Women's Rights and Citizenship Program (WRC) is making important contributions to the field by producing evidence-based, methodologically sound analytical research on themes that are relevant to poor women in developing countries. WRC has built capacity among its researchers and has enabled young people, NGOs, activists and communities to work collaboratively with seasoned academic researchers on women’s rights and citizenship issues. Since its inception WRC has approved 45 research projects and 14 research support projects, in addition to carrying over 29 projects from the former Gender Unit.
