EDC conducted a Gender and Disabilities Analysis (GDA) during USAID Opportunity 2.0’s Year 1. The GDA enables the program team and its partners gain a deeper understanding of the contextual gender gaps and barriers to education and employment and other opportunities for success impacting Filipino youth.
The GDA also looked at the underlying causes of gender inequality, harmful norms and unequitable power dynamics.
The report not only provides key findings from comprehensive desk review, primary data collection, and key informant interviews but also presents recommendations on addressing each finding.
