Project to support Steps Towards Development
(STEPS) for the development of a database of gender-sensitive
indicators and a programme monitoring system.
HLSP assisted in developing a database of gender sensitive
indicators for collection and use and a programme monitoring system
on the legal status of women and gender equality in the STEPS
working areas in Bangladesh.
To undertake this project, it was first necessary for HLSP to
become familiar with STEPS and its local networks and
organisations, service centres and pilot projects; to understand
the process, progress, achievements of building networks and
coalitions to combat gender inequities in the priority areas of
violence, human rights, power and decision-making.
HLSP held discussions and consultations with relevant stakeholders
(GOB, NGOs, international donor community, women and men) and
consultancy outputs were finalised with the management of STEPS
before technical inputs could be successfully integrated into
STEPS’ day-to-day work.
