The empowerment of women and girls—supported by the engagement of men and boys—is essential for building safe, equitable and prosperous societies. Yet gender-based violence, discriminatory social norms and harmful practices continue to limit the rights, freedoms and opportunities of women, girls and other marginalised groups, who are disproportionately affected by poverty, insecurity and exclusion.
Persistent inequalities in access to resources, decision-making and fair outcomes undermine both individual wellbeing and broader social and economic progress. At Itad, we work across sectors and geographies to help partners tackle these challenges—from advancing women’s economic empowerment to addressing violence against women in homes, workplaces and communities, and improving inclusion for marginalised populations more broadly.
We support organisations to design and implement gender-responsive and socially inclusive monitoring, evaluation and learning systems that generate meaningful insights into what drives change. Our approaches help unpack discriminatory norms, assess value for money and effectiveness, and provide the evidence partners need to strengthen strategies, enhance accountability and deliver more inclusive and equitable outcomes.
