Gender Scan Methodology for water utilities (2011)
-
The Gender and Water Alliance (GWA) has designed this Gender Scan Methodology to assist water and sanitation utilities in identifying how effectively they are mainstreaming gender in their policies, practices, and procedures, and to assist them in identifying areas where they can further strengthen gender mainstreaming.
The gender scan methodology can be used to assess gender mainstreaming opportunities throughout the utility’s operations and management, or can be limited to a specific component or activity the utility would like to focus on.

Gender, Water and Climate Change (2009)
-
Climate change is a reality, and poses a serious long term threat to society and to the environment. Water is particularly threatened by climate change. With rising temperatures, changes in runoff patterns and increased water evaporation, climate change will greatly affect the distribution of the world’s water and the timing of flows. Such challenges of climate change are not gender neutral. Women and men have different vulnerability and capacity to adapt to climate impacts due to differing roles, opportunities, and access to resources. This folder gives an overview of key challenges and concludes with recommendations for policy and practice.
