The Importance of Gender in Data on Orphans and Vulnerable Children

Abstract:

This brief explores the importance of gender in monitoring and evaluation activities and suggests indicators to reveal and explain gender gaps in OVC outcomes.

MEASURE Evaluation is funded by USAID to strengthen capacity in developing countries to gather, interpret, and use data to improve health. We create tools and approaches for rigorous evaluations, providing evidence to address health challenges. And we strengthen health information systems so countries can make better decisions and sustain good health outcomes over time.
