The GAD Webinar 3 will introduce the Gender-Responsive Local Government Unit (GeRL) Toolkit as a gender analysis tool specifically designed to assess and enhance the gender responsiveness of LGUs at both provincial and city/municipal levels. The session will highlight the practical application of the toolkit in evaluating the organizational capacities of LGUs and their delivery of basic services and facilities. The GeRL Assessment Tool aims to gather data on GAD mainstreaming efforts, serves as a monitoring and evaluation tool, and identifies gaps and strategies for achieving gender-responsive local governance.
The GeRL Assessment Tool comprises six forms, each serving a specific purpose:
- FORM A: LGU BASIC INFORMATION: Captures the LGU’s profile, including officials, demographics, and economic information.
- FORM B: GeRL ASSESSMENT TOOL FOR ORGANIZATIONAL CAPACITIES: Evaluates gender responsiveness in terms of policies, plans, and institutional capabilities.
- FORM C: GeRL ASSESSMENT TOOL FOR BASIC SERVICES AND FACILITIES: Assesses gender responsiveness in the delivery of basic services and facilities.
- FORM D: GeRL ASSESSMENT TOOL SCORE SHEET: Reflects the scores per indicator from Forms B and C.
- FORM E: GeRL ASSESSMENT TOOL RATING SUMMARY: Summarizes ratings for the main performance areas in Forms B and C.
- FORM F: LGU ACTION POINTS: Identifies gaps and gender issues, proposing specific interventions, implementation schedules, and responsible LGU offices.
GAD webinar 3 will provide participants with a step-by-step guide to administering the tool, ensuring a thorough understanding of its implementation process. This webinar is open only to participants from the LGUs.
