The Africa Gender Innovation Lab’s core empowerment indicators: developing a cross-country module to complement context-specific measures

This resource provides indicators which can be used to measure the effectiveness of activities related to women’s economic empowerment. It explains what economic empowerment is and is not, and how it should be measured. It states that tailoring measurement to reflect local economic arrangements and capture the specific pathway the project is intending to affect can yield a more precise (and useful) picture of women’s economic empowerment.
