This whitepaper hopes to serve as a thought leadership piece and guide to help grantmakers realize how adopting a gendered approach will create deeper impact and result in improved returns. It intends to put the onus on the givers (funders) and doers (non-profits) to drive conversation and action on the critical role gender plays in the socio-economic development of India;
demystify the concept of using a gender lens; trigger self-evaluation; and pave the way for more funders and non-profits to actively adopt a gender lens.
