Harmonized Gender and Development Guidelines HARMONIZED GENDER AND DEVELOPMENT GUIDELINES

for Project Development, Implementation, Management, Monitoring and Evaluation

A project of the National Economic and Development Authority, the Philippine Commission on Women, and the Official Development Assistance Gender and Development Network.

The third edition of the Guidelines was supported by a grant from the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation through the PCW- AECID Project on "Institutional Strengthening of National and Local Governance on Human Rights and Economic Empowerment with a Gender Focus: Implementation of the Magna Carta of Women". However, its contents do not necessarily reflect the views of AECID. This edition contains new sector pull-outs. For projects or programs that are not covered by the sector checklists in the present version of the Guidelines, box seven A should be used in assessing and rating these.
