Preamble
The Royal Norwegian Embassy in Addis Ababa (the Embassy) has requested Norad's assistance in undertaking a "Gender review" of the Embassy's portfolio on natural resources and food security, in order to identify possible ways to increase the focus on women and gender issues in programs.
The Review has been executed through desk studies, discussions with representatives of the Embassy, implementing institutions in Ethiopia (12- 16 January 2009), and through discussions with Norad staff members who are actively supporting the Embassy. The Review Team appreciates the fruitful and open discussions held with the Embassy and institutions in
Ethiopia.
The Review Team herein provides its independent recommendations. This, however, does not indicate any commitment on behalf of the Embassy.
The Review Team comprised of Bodil Maal (NORAD) and Sigrid Skålnes (NIBR).
