. . 19 iii USAID Policy on Gender Equality and Female Empowerment Message from the Administrator I am pleased to share with you our newly updated policy on Gender Equality and Female Empowerment.

Designed to enhance women’s empowerment and reduce gender gaps, the policy affirms the critical role women play in accelerating progress in development and advancing global prosperity and security. As Secretary Clinton has said,“Gender equality is both the right thing to do and the smart thing to do. ” The policy comes at a critical time as global efforts to reduce gender gaps have met only partial success.

Across every devel opment priority worldwide—from education to economic inclusion—gender inequality remains a significant challenge. Building on the Agency’s decades of experience, the new policy provides guidance on pursuing more effective, evidencebased investments in gender equality and female empowerment and incorporating these efforts into our core development pro gramming.

Ultimately, this integration is critical to achieving better results in development. Under this policy, we place a strong emphasis on building high impact partnerships, harnessing the power of innovation and conducting rigorous program evaluation to deliver meaningful results.

We will remain focused on protecting women and men from violence and abuse, as well as increasing the participation of women at all levels of decisionmaking, especially during peace processes and postconflict reconstruction. Finally, we must ensure that the composition of our own Agency reflects our principles, creating a work environment that empowers and rewards women and men fully and equitably.

Already, we have established a solid foundation to accelerate progress. We have strengthened requirements to ensure that every strategy and project is shaped by a gender analysis and establishes common indicators for judging our success.

Driving this agenda forward, USAID’s Senior Coordinator for Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment is working closely with the Senior Gender Advisor in the Bureau for Policy, Planning and Learning, the reinvigorated Office of Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment, and gender advisors in Washington We know that longterm, sustainable development will only be possible when women and men enjoy equal opportunity to rise to their potential.

But today, women and girls continue to face disadvantages in every sector in which we work, and—in other cases—boys are falling behind. With this policy, we can ensure our values and commitments are reflected in durable, meaningful results for all. I look forward to working with all of you to ensure an enduring and substantial commitment to gen der equality and female empowerment.

iv USAID Policy on Gender Equality and Female Empowerment Executive Summary Gender equality and female empowerment are core devel opment objectives, fundamental for the realization of human rights and key to effective and sustainable development out comes.

No society can develop successfully without providing equitable opportunities, resources, and life prospects for males and females so that they can shape their own lives and contribute to their families and communities.

Although many gender gaps have narrowed over the past two decades, substantial inequalities remain across all sectors in which USAID works, particularly in lowincome and con flictaffected countries and among disadvantaged groups. USAID has a long history of supporting programming to increase gender equality.

Over the past two years alone, changes to the Automated Directives System (ADS), revised technical competencies required for Foreign Service back stops, new definitions of gender issues for budget attribution, new senior positions devoted exclusively to gender equality and female empowerment, and new common indicators to measure progress in this arena have strengthened the Agency’s ability to address key gender issues and track our progress in doing so.

Still, an updated Agency policy on gen der equality and female empowerment is needed to reflect fundamental changes in the world and the evidence that has accumulated since the 1982 Policy Paper on Women in Development was issued.

This new policy on Gender Equal ity and Female Empowerment builds on the Agency’s The goal of this policy is to improve the lives of citizens around the world by advancing equality between females and males, and empowering women and girls to participate fully in and benefit from the development of their societies.

It will be addressed through integration of gender equality and female empowerment throughout the Agency’s Program design and implementation, and monitoring and evaluation. This integrated approach positions the Agency to address gender gaps and the constraints that hold women back.

Under this policy, USAID investments are aimed at three project level, these outcomes will be adapted and translated into specific results with associated targets and indicators.

These outcomes, which are especially important for people who are marginalized or excluded due to ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, lack of income, disability or other factors, reflect the gamut of activities that USAID undertakes across multiple sectors and fields: Reduce gender disparities in access to, control over and benefit from resources, wealth, opportunities and serv ices economic, social, political, and cultural; Reduce genderbased violence and mitigate its harmful effects on individuals and communities; and Increase capability of women and girls to realize their rights, determine their life outcomes, and influence decisionmaking in households, communities, and soci eties.

Seven guiding principles underpin this policy, reflecting key features of the USAID Policy Framework 20112015 and the parameters of the USAID Forward reform agenda: Integrate gender equality and female empower ment into USAID’s work: This policy will be implemented by integrating approaches and actions to advance gender equality and female empowerment throughout the Agency’s Program Cycle.

USAID will also make strategic investments to promote gender equality and female empowerment.

1Executive Summary USAID Policy on Gender Equality and Female Empowerment Pursue an inclusive approach to foster equality: This policy is inclusive of all women and men, girls and boys, regardless of age, sexual orientation, gender iden tity, disability status, religion, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, geographic area, migratory status, forced dis placement or HIV/AIDS status.

Build partnerships across a wide range of stake holders: USAID will partner with host governments, civil society, the private sector and other donors to ensure that our efforts are coordinated and non duplicative, build on the skills and initiatives of local actors, and reflect country priorities.

Harness science, technology, and innovation to reduce gender gaps and empower women and girls: USAID investments should make bold and imaginative use of new technologies to change dis criminatory social norms and stereotypes, and empower women and girls to wield greater influence Address the unique challenges in crisis and con flictaffected environments: USAID’s work in conflictaffected and fragile states should promote women’s participation in all efforts to prevent, resolve and rebuild following conflict; prevent and respond to sexual and gender based violence; and ensure that relief and recovery efforts address the different needs and priorities of women and men.

Serve as a thoughtleader and a learning community: The Agency will measure performance in closing key gender gaps and empowering women and girls, learn from successes and failures and dissemi nate best practices on gender integration throughout Hold ourselves accountable: Gender equality and female empowerment is a shared Agency responsibil ity and depends on the contribution and collective commitment of all staff, with particular emphasis on senior managers and Mission Directors.

This policy applies to all bureaus and missions and covers policy and programmatic operations in Washington and the field.

The policy includes detailed descriptions of organiza tional roles and responsibilities to institutionalize the policy in missions, regional bureaus, pillar bureaus, the Office of Gen der Equality and Women’s Empowerment, the Office of Acquisition and Assistance, the Office of Human Resources, the Bureau for Policy, Planning and Learning, and the Office of the Administrator.

The release of the policy will be fol lowed by Frequently Asked Questions and Implementation Guidance, including a timetable for phasing in the require ments over the next two years. Implementation of the policy will be evaluated in 2015.

Realization of this policy by all Agency staff and in all of the countries in which we work will help to bring to fruition USAID’s development vision of a world in which women and men, girls and boys enjoy economic, social, cultural, civil, and political rights and are equally empowered to secure better lives for themselves, their families, and their communities.

USAID Policy on Gender Equality and Female Empowerment Introduction Gender equality and female empowerment are now universally recognized as core development objectives, fundamental for the realization of human rights, and key to effective and sustainable development outcomes.

1 No society can develop sustainably without increasing and transforming the distribution of opportunities, resources, and choices for males and females so that they have equal power to shape their own lives and contribute to their communi ties.

A growing body of research demonstrates that societies with greater gender equality experience faster eco nomic growth, and benefit from greater agricultural productivity and improved food security. Empowering women to participate in and lead public and private institu tions makes these institutions more representative and effective.

Increasing girls’ and women’s education and access to resources improves the health and education of the next generation.

Women also play critical roles as effective peace advocates, community leaders, and champions of civil and The 2010 Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Review (QDDR), prepared jointly by the State Department and USAID, placed women at the center of U.S. diplomacy and development — not simply as beneficiaries, but also as agents of peace, reconciliation, development, growth, and sta bility.

The first operational principle in the USAID Policy Framework 20112015 is “Promote Gender Equality and Female Empowerment. ” This policy on Gender Equality and Gender equality 2 concerns women and men, and it involves working with men and boys, women and girls to bring about changes in attitudes, behaviors, roles and responsibilities at home, in the workplace, and in the community.

Genuine equality means more than parity in numbers or laws on the books; it means expanding freedoms and improving overall quality of life so that equality is achieved without sacrificing gains for males or Female empowerment 3 is achieved when women and girls acquire the power to act freely, exercise their rights, and fulfill their potential as full and equal members of society.

While empowerment often comes from within, and individuals empower themselves, cultures, societies, and institutions create conditions that facilitate or undermine the possibilities for empowerment. Gender integration involves identifying, and then addressing, gender inequalities during strategy and proj ect design, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation.

Since the roles and power relations between men and women affect how an activity is implemented, it is essential that project managers address these issues on an ongoing basis.

3Introduction USAID Policy on Gender Equality and Female Empowerment Female Empowerment seeks to codify and operationalize these principles across USAID policies and practices. USAID’s Experience Addressing Gender Equality and Female Empowerment While USAID has a long history of addressing women’s issues in development, accomplishments have been mixed and the intensity of the focus on gender issues has varied over time.

In 1974, soon after passage of the 1973 Percy Amendment to the Foreign Assistance Act, USAID estab lished the Women in Development (WID) Office to assist USAID missions and regional bureaus in integrating women into their various development projects. 4 A “Women in Development” Policy Paper was issued in 1982.

It was sup plemented in 1996 by a Gender Plan of Action (GPA) that included requirements for gender integration in policy, per sonnel, procurement, performance monitoring, and evaluation.

An evaluation of the Plan in 2000 by the Advi sory Committee on Voluntary Foreign Assistance (ACVFA) found a number of obstacles to effective institutionalization of the GPA, including large budget cuts coupled with expanding budget earmarks, disruptions caused by reorgani zation of U.S. foreign assistance agencies, low levels of consultation and communication about the Plan with Agency staff, and concern over proliferation of Agency priorities, Although few analyses have been carried out that allow for precise quantification of progress, one such analysis 5 revealed modest increases in the extent to which gender issues were integrated into country strategies over the period 1996 2005 and into procurement solicitations from May 2006 to February 2007.

A second analysis of procurements 6 docu mented an improvement in the percentage of solicitations issued in 2010 that were scored as “moderate” to “thor ough” on gender integration, as compared to 2006/7, and a decrease in the percentage of solicitations over the same time period that received the lowest possible score Recently, greater progress has been made in integrating gen der issues into Agency strategies, programs and procedures.

In 2009, USAID revised its Automated Directives System (ADS), which contains Agency policy directives and manda tory procedures, to establish a more comprehensive approach to gender integration. Gender analysis is one of only two mandatory analysis requirements that are to be procurement processes, and measurement and evaluation.

In 2011, the Agency reviewed and revised the technical compe tencies for different Foreign Service backstops to ensure that they reflect the knowledge, skills, and abilities that will be needed by technical officers to effectively address gender issues in their work.

The Agency also introduced new defini tions of gender issues for budget attributions in Operational Plans, along with a set of common indicators designed to In 2011, USAID significantly expanded efforts to sup port women’s leadership in several fields.

Anticipating release of the U.S. National Action Plan on Women, Peace and Security , USAID provided financial support to meet the training, transportation, and security needs of female negotiators, and allocated funds to support the inclusion of women in high level decision making processes, including formal peace negotiations, donor conferences, and transitional political processes.

Complementary programs were created to cultivate women leaders in business, academia, and research; strengthen the skills of female legislators and legislative branch staff; foster women’s leadership within social protection; and elevate women’s leader ship in the smalland mediumsized enterprise sector.

> 6DevTech, Measuring Gender Integration in USAID Solicitation Documents Issued in 2010 ,February 2011(unpublished). 4USAID Policy on Gender Equality and Female Empowerment Introduction assess progress toward increasing gender equality and female empowerment (see Box 6).

The Office of the Administrator and the Bureau for Policy, Planning and Learning (PPL) cre ated two senior positions devoted exclusively to gender equality and female empowerment; the Office of Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment was renamed and upgraded; and the Bureau of Democracy, Conflict, and Humanitarian Assistance (DCHA) created a Center of Excel lence on Democracy, Human Rights, and Governance with a particular focus on gender equality and women’s rights.

Finally, missions and offices began to scale up programs that work expand coverage and access to medical and psycho social care, legal assistance, and income generating activities for genderbased violence (GBV) survivors in the Demo cratic Republic of the Congo, and extend Safe Schools, an innovative program to reduce schoolrelated genderbased violence, to the Dominican Republic, Senegal, Yemen, and Tajikistan, among others.

For these efforts to be accelerated and sustained, USAID needs a coherent, relevant, and uptodate Agency policy on gender equality and female empowerment. The world has changed considerably since 1982, and the literature and field experience related to closing gender gaps has substantially expanded.

This new policy on Gender Equality and Female Empowerment builds on this evidence base and the best practices of USAID and other donors, and provides an over arching framework for gender integration throughout all -. ,. 2 A GLOBAL SNAPSHOT OF # FEMALE EMPOWERMENT IN 2012 A large body of evidence has established that gender inequality has costs for individuals and societies and these costs can multiply across generations.

7 For instance, women’s economic depend ency on men reduces their ability to exercise safer sex options to protect themselves against unwanted pregnancies and HIV infec tion. 8 When women cannot participate in the labor force, are prevented by law or practice from entering certain occupations, or excluded from management positions, GDP growth can suffer by as much as two percent.

9 Conversely, gender equality not only benefits individual males and females but whole sectors and societies. For instance, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) estimates that if women had the same access to productive resources as men, they could increase yields on their farms by 20 to 30 percent, which in turn could raise total agricultural output in developing countries by 2.

5 to 4 percent and reduce the number of hungry people in the world by 12 to 17 percent, up to 150 million people. 10 Great strides have been made to reduce gender gaps and improve the status of women and girls over the past three decades. Yet, significant gender gaps remain across sectors in all countries around the world; they are often greater among the poor.

Historically, gender inequalities have disadvantaged females, and while that remains the case in many domains, gen der norms and policies also negatively affect boys and men in specific regions and sectors. Gender gaps in primary education have closed in the vast majority of developing countries since 2000.

Progress has been particularly notable at the primary school level in the Arab States, South and West Asia and subSaharan Africa – the regions with the largest gender gaps in 2000. Still, in 2012, South Asia and West Africa continue to have large gender gaps that disfavor girls in primary education. In Afghanistan, Chad, and the Central African Republic, for instance, fewer than 70 girls per 100 boys are enrolled in primary school.

On the other hand, boys are less likely to complete primary education than girls in 24 countries, including Lesotho, Nicaragua, Suriname, Namibia, Progress is less evident at the secondary level: gender parity has not improved in subSaharan Africa or in the Arab States.

In contrast, in many countries in Latin America and the Caribbean and Europe and Eurasia, girls have had higher attendance at sec ondary schools than boys since the mid1980s. In countries in other regions, such as subSaharan Africa and South Asia, girls are often more likely to drop out of secondary school even when they have completed primary education. 11 Progress in school entry has not been accompanied by changes in other domains.

Fields of study, for instance, still tend to be segregated by sex, with more males choosing or being encour aged to pursue higher status and better paid careers in science, technology, and engineering while females predominate in the lower paying education, health care and social service profes sions.

Mortality and Reproductive Health Over the past 30 years, huge strides have been made, particu larly in life expectancy, fertility, and mortality. However, gender inequality continues to have a negative impact on a range of > 7The World Bank, World Development Report 2012: Gender Equality and Development, (Washington, DC: The World Bank, 2011); online at http://siteresources. worldbank.

Genderrelated power imbalances contribute to excess female mortality across the life cycle: at birth, during infancy and early childhood, and throughout the reproductive years.

Harmful gender norms affect men and boys by encourag ing risktaking and by limiting their healthseeking behavior. In Russia, Ukraine, and other countries in Eurasia, the life expectancy of men has been dramatically reduced by substance abuse and other risky behaviors.

Although the reproductive health of women and girls has improved over the past few decades, more than 127 million women in subSaharan Africa and South Central Asia in 2010 still have an unmet need for modern contraceptives (215 million across all developing countries).

Taking into account projected population growth, this number will increase to 176 million in the next two decades if concerns about the availability of con traceptive methods are not addressed. 12 Adolescent fertility rates also remain high; young women have higher unmet need for contraception and higher chances than older women of suf fering from complications at birth.

Maternal mortality is especially high in subSaharan Africa and parts of Asia, owing mainly to a failure to provide adequate family planning and maternity care to childbearing women.

Maternal deaths in developing countries could be reduced by 70 percent, and newborn deaths cut nearly in half, if the world doubled its investment in family planning and maternal and newborn Women are more vulnerable than men to sexually transmitted infections, particularly HIV/AIDS. Unequal gender norms often prevent men and women from seeking HIV testing, counseling, and treatment, as well as disclosing their HIV status.

Today, women and girls make up almost half the infected population ages 15–49 worldwide; in subSaharan Africa the rate is close to 60 percent. The persistence of genderbased violence con tributes to women’s increased risk and vulnerability.

A range of evidence points to the high global prevalence of gen der based violence (GBV) which in the broadest definition is violence directed at an individual based on his or her biological sex, gender identity, or perceived adherence to socially defined norms of masculinity and femininity. 14 GBV is a constraint to individual and societal development and has high human and economic costs.

For instance, women who experience violence from their partners are less likely to earn a living and less able to care for their children. Children who witness violence are signifi cantly more at risk for health problems, anxiety disorders, poor school performance and violent behavior.

The economic effects of violence against women include increased absenteeism; decreased labor market participation; reduced productivity; lower earnings, investment, and savings; and lower intergenera tional productivity.

15 Populationbased prevalence data for one form of GBV inti mate partner violence now exists for more than 90 countries, although there are still some regions, such as the Middle East and West Africa, where data is relatively limited. The prevalence of physical or sexual violence experienced by women varies widely across countries.

A tencountry study using Demo graphic and Health Survey (DHS) data of evermarried women reporting spousal/intimate partner violence shows rates ranging from 48 percent in Zambia, 44 percent in Colombia, and 42 percent in Peru, to 18 percent in Cambodia, 19 percent in India, and 22 percent in the Dominican Republic.

16 Intimate partner violence cuts across socioeconomic, religious, and ethnic groups and across geographic areas, but women living in poverty, women with disabilities, and adolescent girls are especially vul nerable.

17 At least 2 million girls are at risk of Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) each year in at least 28 countries, primarily in subSaharan Africa, but also northern Iraq, Malaysia, and Indone sia, exposing them to a wide range of health risks from incontinence to increased risk of childbirth complications and > 12 United Nations Population Division, World Population Prospects, 2010 Revision ,(New York: United Nations Population Division, 2010).
