Dissemination and Feedback

To ensure its widest possible use, the Task Force has developed a strategy to ensure the Handbook reaches as many of its potential users as possible. This presentation today is part of this strategy. It is available in hard copies but also in electronic version. The Handbook is available on the UNEG website, on all of its member agencies’ websites (evaluation pages most likely), and will be sent to all agencies that may be, by their mandate, interested in its contents. Each agency may also wish to post the Handbook on their web pages and are most welcome to do so. The UNEG Task Force on Human Rights and Gender Equality has also put in place a system of feedback, by Handbook users, on its contents and general quality, to ensure continuous efforts can be made to improve its relevance and usefulness. A very short form is available either in the handbook or in electronic form, for its users to provide their feedback and takes about 5 minutes to fill.
