The checklist will aid you to address gender power inequalities in accessing vaccination, including women’s limited mobility, decision-making power, access to resources and their risks of experiencing sexual harassment, exploitation, and other forms of gender-based violence.
The Gender Self‑Assessment Tool is a practical set of resources that can be used on a regular basis to plan and design programmes, and to monitor and evaluate their work in a participatory way. The layout of the toolkit makes it a useful companion for undertaking a thorough gender self‑assessment to evaluate and reform services to better promote gender equality. The resources in the toolkit are distinct: they work independently, but are connected. This means you can conduct your gender self‑assessment in stages and complete the entire process within six months.
The Resource Guide and Toolkit has been developed to help both organizations and individual practitioners and experts to address intersectionality in policies and in programmes. It may be used by individuals or teams to assess their own knowledge, attitudes and practice, at a programme level as a supplement to existing design, adaptation and assessment processes or at policy level to better understand and address the different and intersecting effects of policy on marginalised persons.
This toolkit supports Health Partnerships in integrating a GESI approach by identifying entry points across all elements of Health Partnership work: project design and implementation; internal organisational structures and activities; and monitoring and evaluation activities.

Save the Children’s Gender and Power (GAP) Analysis Guidance is an essential tool to identify, understand, and address discrimination and inequalities that prevent children, their families, and communities from claiming their full and equal rights. It supports the design and adaptation of programming that positively transforms unequal power relations and ensures all stakeholders can equitably access, participate in, be decision makers for, and benefit from activities. It enables evidence-based programming and advocacy that advance gender equality and social justice.
Provides a framework and concrete steps for building attention to gender inequality into the monitoring and evaluation of sexual and reproductive health and HIV responses, into the information systems that generate evidence, and into data analysis. This tool enables the generation of strategic information (that is, data and evidence for decision-making) that supports mainstreaming gender in national plans and programmes. The core content of the tool is applied to M&E of the HIV epidemic and response. However, the tool can be easily applied to M&E of SRH as well as other health problems and programmes.
This tool allows you to do conduct a gender service delivery quality assessment. It includes a checklist against different performance standards.
The tool was originally developed by Jhpiego Mozambique with providers and program planners, and has been adapted, piloted and refined in several low and middle-income countries. The standards are organized by different aspects of service delivery (e.g., facility readiness, clinical care, etc.). The toolkit aims to provide participants with knowledge and skills to provide high-quality, gender-sensitive, and transformative services to individuals and couples including females, males, and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex (LGBTI) clients.
The toolkit reflects numerous calls to action for equitable representation of women in global health decision-making. The strategies shared in the toolkit’s modules apply an intersectional lens and complement existing leadership curricula, providing tools to health care workers and managers to advance gender equality. The approach is particularly relevant in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, but it can also be used long-term to spur greater inclusion of women’s voices in global health.

The purpose of the Gender Analysis Toolkit is to provide research questions to guide data collection when performing a project-level gender analysis.
