Abstract

Program funds were allocated equally between the three thematic areas and across the four main regions: Latin America and the Caribbean, the Middle East and North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Asia. This evaluation study looks at ongoing research based on fairly narrow terms of reference. The evaluation covers the prospectus design and implementation; the quality of research; the relevance of program outcomes; and key issues for governance and management. Evidence at the project level shows that that GSJ-funded research has informed policies that are locally grounded and gender aware, and has influenced policy debates and approaches to policy formation.
