Our services

Gender & Social Development

Promoting equality, inclusion and human development for all.

Social inclusion shapes long-term development outcomes. We promote inclusive growth and people-centered progress, bringing gender, livelihoods, and human development into the same advisory process as economic and climate analysis.

Inclusion is part of whether development lasts. Gender, livelihoods, and human development belong in the same process as economic and climate analysis, not in a separate annex.

What this practice covers

  • 01

    Integrated gender analysis

    Show how a policy or investment lands differently across women, men, and groups who are often missed.

  • 02

    People-centered design

    Build participation into the evidence, so affected communities shape the questions and the test of success.

  • 03

    Human development links

    Tie education, health, and social protection questions to the economic or climate decision at hand.

  • 04

    Equity in results

    Define results that record who benefits, not only whether an average improved.

How the work proceeds

  1. 1

    Frame the decision

    Name the choice, the deadline, and who must be able to use the result.

  2. 2

    Assemble evidence

    Gather data, interviews, and prior work. Mark what is firm and what is still uncertain.

  3. 3

    Test options

    Compare paths across economic, environmental, and social effects.

  4. 4

    Support delivery

    Leave owners, a sequence, and a way to tell whether the choice is working.

What you leave with

  • An inclusion note inside the main brief
  • A participation record
  • Results that can be disaggregated
