Yes, as Oxfam, we've developed a tool for the private sector to guide how to conduct a gender impact assessment for a project. It's something that was developed by colleagues at Oxfam Australia, and it's been rolled out in various energy-related projects, including some hydro dams and some more extractive sector projects.
It's a four-step process, but the first step, really, is establishing that baseline of what the gender power dynamics are within a local community at the starting point and what impact a project would have to ameliorate or reduce inequalities, or to exacerbate inequalities. So, understanding that starting point is important. I think that each context is going to have a different starting point and different concerns and considerations, depending on what sort of project or development is being proposed.
It's about understanding that starting point and what some of the possible gender impacts of the project are. The gender impact assessment tool that we've developed has sometimes been used before a project is in place. At other times, it's been used after the project has been running for a number of years and local populations are better able to express and document what the gender impacts have been.
