they be at both national and local levels? in policy-making and/or programme planning?Should they be facilitators and trainers, sources of technical expertise, linking agents torespective departments, R&D experts, monitors and evaluators of MINED action?
f) Determine and establish ways of managing appropriate sources, levels and managementof funding e.g. should it be through a central budget allocation or contributions fromeach department? Should it be managed by the GU or through a "parent" department? Towhom should the GU budget plan and reporting be accountable?
g) Provide support in a way which ensures national coverage and sustained impact, againde-linking it as a function of specific and narrowly localized projects
h) Use the SWAP arrangement to facilitate coordinated systemic action, especially in termsof policy and technical capacity development.
4.2.3 Capacity and Institutional Development
This is a broad area of suggestions, but a key one. While it is clear that sensitization to thefact of gender as a dimension of all policy and programmes, it is far from clear how makingthis happen should/can be done in practice or how the effectiveness of the approaches whichare taken can be assessed in terms of their making a difference in how gender is handled.
The cascade approach is a major strategy for gender training, for example. The efficacy ofthe approach needs to be examined to ensure that learning goes beyond simply recognizingthe principle that female participation is necessary, to actually being able to act on thisprinciple through changed practice. More women are entering the classroom and theeducation bureaucracy. Whether they prove to be effective as child and gender-friendlyteachers will depend on how well their capacities to teach are improved. Whether they stay inand contribute widely to the system will depend on how fully their status as professionals isenhanced and recognized through opportunities to advance as school managers, educationdirectors, policy-makers. Projects like GEM are encouraging community members, especiallywomen, to engage with children's learning. The extent to which they can do this effectivelyand sustainably will depend on how well their own learning is facilitated and valued.
Suggested Actionsa) Develop a comprehensive training programme on gender in education for all GU
officers at national, provincial and district levels, preferably to be delivered on a long-term, in-service basis, through modules comprising discussion themes, on-the-jobapplication tasks and guides for assessing practice and including specific outreach andfacilitative skill. Issues they should address, for example: how to communicate withpeers/ colleagues; how to analyze their work from a gender perspective; how to workwith teachers and communities in assessing gender implications in matters such asteaching behaviour and school management, early marriages and pregnancy, sexual abuseand HIV/AIDS.
b) Since it cannot be assumed that messages will automatically flow down the system,incorporate a specifically training-of-trainers module into all capacity development

initiatives, focused on the knowledge and skills needed to adapt materials for the varyinguser groups (DPE, DDE, ZIP, CLEC/SC, etc.) as well as to plan, deliver and assess actuallearning activities.
c) Include in all pre- and in-service teacher training more systematic and comprehensivecoverage of:- all aspects of gender-sensitive and child-centered pedagogy, including knowledge and
skills in diagnosis of children's learning strengths and gaps;how to tailor classroom management strategies and teaching methods to children'scapacities and needs. For example, modes of questioning, guiding children's thinking,correcting errors in ways sensitive to these characteristics;how to develop literacy, numeracy and scientific capacities in children, from simpleto higher-order cognitive processes;facilitating children's skills in social interaction. For example, negotiating options,handling diversity, resolving conflicts; andways of creating and using locally-based teaching/learning materials.
d) Co-ordinate and systematize the training of school directors, as much as possiblethrough arrangements built into the ZIP, as a means of promoting on-going collaborationat school level and reduce the impact of directors moving out of their positions.
e) Strengthen and consolidate the ZIP as:an agent and monitor of school-based innovation and change (for example,introducing gender and enhancing community participation);a venue for the regular in-service professional development of school managers andteachers (for example, in collaboration with IAP and IMAP programs, as well asGEM and those of NGOs); anda centre of materials management and production (for example, as places foraccumulating and disseminating literacy and school documents andtraining/supporting teachers in the preparation of their own classroom reading andlearning materials).
f) Use the SWAP framework expressly to facilitate co-ordinated interventions through theZIPs so that they are cumulative and consistent, complement one another, avoidduplication and over-burdening of staff, and provide for capacity development of memberschools.
g) Support nonformal education, especially for women and out-of-school youth,recognizing that:- EFA calls for a conception of basic education, which includes both formal and
nonformal education;- the more women are perceived, and perceived themselves as having a right to learn
and a legitimate place in all learning activities, the better it is for gender equity inbasic education.

h) Encourage revising the nature and quality of literacy classes toward a learner-basedcontent and participatory methods of adult education (andragogy).
i) Expand the quality and scope of circles of interest to adults, as a means of drawing inmore adult learners, consolidating their literacy and numeracy capacities and facilitatingunderstanding and action on such quality of life issues as HIV/AEDS, communitygovernance, planning and management of income generating activities, among others.
4.2.4 School and Community
The more a school and community can mutually create and maintain an active, accurate andanalyzed picture of their children at home and in school, the better able they are to ensureinclusiveness and quality for all of them - to find them when they are missing, to investigatereasons for their absence and to monitor whether and what they are learning.
Suggested Actionsa) Strengthen and extend community-school MIS capacity. For example, promote, provide
training and guide the development of community-school capacities in the regularcollection, analysis and management of gender-desegregated student participation data.And very important, include in the training how to use such data for progressively morerelevant decisions on each child's experience in school as well as on management of theschool itself.
b) Identify and ensure better co-ordination and use of all instances of school-basedmonitoring, from NGOs as well as MINED and donors, to support increasingly morecomprehensive mapping of the learner population the school is serving, and implicationsfor the types of approaches and resources required.
c) Identify gender equity "windows" in the 20% localization of curriculum policyinitiative, to ensure that local control over education and school issues maintains thispolicy direction, and can create and apply appropriately gender-sensitive actions,including in areas such as:
the piloting of local language in the first three grades (experience shows locallanguage as the medium of instruction can be especially helpful to girls, who are lesslikely than boys to have exposure to or the self-confidence to try a foreign language);
- the development of flexible schedules to address the field and domesticresponsibilities of many children.
4.2.5 Analysis, Evaluation and Research
There appears at the moment to be little systematic analysis within MINED; mostparticularly absent appears to be a coherent R&D (research and development) function. Thisis a serious gap for an education system in the process of major reform and restructuring withrespect to all aspects of its work, including gender equity, and therefore needing well-grounded, locally relevant analyses on policy directions, appropriate methods and structuresand quality of results. One difficulty seems to be limited (or perhaps simply not yet decided)

links between implementers such as the gender units and ZIPs, on the one hand, and thosewith research expertise and resources, on the other, for example MDE, the PedagogicalUniversity, and the Eduardo Mondlane University - Faculty of Education.
Suggested Actionsa) Encourage/support sustained practice-based evaluation and research, with particular
focus on providing incentives for collaboration at all levels and networking amongMINED departments, donor programmes and NGOs etc.
b) Support processes of experimentation in all aspects of the system, including helpingteachers assess their own teaching methods (e.g. through more reflection exercises suchas that of Rede Osuwela); and ensuring that all "pilot" projects are actually managed assuch with well-articulated variables and indicators, planned and sustained data collectionor rigorous analysis on implementation and impact.
c) Work toward shifting attention away from monitoring for inputs and activities, towardmonitoring for outcomes (e.g. encourage an effective results-based management/RBMapproach).

ANNEX 1: Guidelines for the Interviews
Areas of Data Collection Focus
The basic aim of this evaluation is not to assess the success/failure of GEM as a project, butrather to look at what it has done, how, and what changes it has produced - what differenceit has made. From this basis, the analysis will try to draw lessons about what works, what isless effective and what are possible "ways forward" in improving the access, retention andsuccess of girls in school and the quality of their learning, specifically in the case ofMozambique, but also more generally.
The proposed focus for questions, therefore, is that they address four broad themes (amongothers that will be added by MINED, UNICEF and others):
a) the assumptions, inputs and experience of the project within the framework of qualityeducation and child-friendly schools - especially as these affect girls;
b) who has been reached and with what types of results - both planned and unexpected, shortand longer-term;
c) the factors which appear to have influenced reach and results, positively and negatively; andd) the sustainability of the various inputs and results - how likely they are to reach increasingly
more children and communities and to be institutionalized within Government and otherstructures.
The questions listed below provided a general framework, but were further focused andbetter phrased in the actual interviews. The idea was that by asking questions in eachcategory of everyone (policy, bureaucracy, teachers and school administrators, parents,students, donors), a more comprehensive and realistic picture would emerge of the kinds ofchanges GEM is producing, as a whole and in its various activities, and what appears to behelping and/or hindering progress. It was not intended that the list be used as aquestionnaire. For all discussions, questions explored why/who not; how etc?
A. How Stakeholders Define/View the Problem
• What was the specific "problem" or situation this project was designed to solve?• Within the general issue of girls' education, what were the different interpretations in various
contexts, among different groups?• What different priorities were expressed by stakeholders which they felt should be addressed
first?• Was the problem felt to affect some families and girls in some communities and for some
schools more than others? in different ways than others? If so, did this effect the way theproject was introduced/what was done?
B. How GEM and its activities were expected to affect girls' education• To what extent was GEM seen as a single project with various elements, or as a series of
discrete activities?• Were some activities seen as central or core, with others less important?
GemEvaluat-FRep2001 44
The Gender and Education in Mozambique - Analysis of Results, Lessons and Recommendations - Final Report
• How were the activities expected to integrate with each other at some point, at school orMINED level - as a whole "girl-friendly" package?
• How was each activity expected specifically to address the girls' education "problem", e.g.by doing "x" what changes were expected to result on girls' learning, directly or indirectly?
• How were activities connected to other programmes, of the Government, donors or NGOs? Inwhat ways did collaboration happen? How was this expected to influence results on girls'education?
C. Range and Nature of Participation
• Who has been involved in the project, within MINED, the school, the community?• Why did different participants choose to become involved — what benefit did they expect to
get?• What did different participants expect to do - what role did they expect/were they expected
to play?• Were other people or groups missed who should have been involved in some activities?
D. Changes resulting from the project as a whole and its activities
i) What new knowledge has been gained by parents and children, school staff, policy-makers andprogramme developers about:
a) the general situation of girls' education: whether and why they attend; what makes them wantto stay, go less frequently or decide to drop out
b) the role of families in encouraging or discouraging girls from going to school and staying inschool; in whether they learn well there
c) how teaching practices in the school affect girls' learning and progressiond) how management practices of the school head affects girlse) links between the school and families, how they work and what makes them effective or not
in helping girls enroll and progressf) what the different aspects of a school's "culture" are which affect girls and how e.g. use of
physical punishment, presence of sexual or other harassment, openness to students' ideas andparticipation in decision-making, treatment of students with disabilities or HIV/AIDS;
g) how the quality of school facilities affects girls e.g. condition of classrooms, presence ofgirls-only latrines, learning materials.
ii) What changes in attitudes about girls' education have happened, for example, in terms of:a) how policy-makers, in MINED and in other social development ministries, at provincial and
national levels, think about gender in education - especially the implications of girls'enrolment and progression under the ESSP and SWAP
b) what families think about their daughters' education and what they should do to help them goto, and learn in, school
c) what responsibilities school managers have to ensure gender-sensitive and equitableregulations, disciplinary behaviour, facilities
d) how teachers should treat girls and boys, and interact with parents on issues of theirchildren's learning
e) how girls themselves feel about their education and about going to school, whether they haveincreased motivation for attending
GemEvaluat-FRep2001 45
The Gender and Education in Mozambique - Analysis of Results, Lessons and Recommendations - Final Report
iii) What changes in actual behaviour and practice have been happening, for example:a) are there indications of families making adjustments in the behaviour they require of girls and
boys, resulting in it being easier for girls to enroll and maintain regular attendanceb) have teachers behaviour changed, using more learner-centred and gender sensitive teaching
methodologies - and what do these actually look likec) is there evidence of schools becoming more friendly toward children - in the rules and norms
of behaviour they encourage, in their physical facilities, in the teaching materials availabled) are schools and communities keeping better track of children: who are coming to school and
who are missing, how ready they are to learn (healthy, intellectually alert, well-nourished),what their progress is
e) are children, especially girls, changing their behaviour in the school — looking happier there,losing less class time because of illness or because the sanitary conditions are poor
f) are there signs of increasing girls' participation - more enrolments, fewer absentee days,more active involvement in class activities, better acquisition of basic literacy, numeracy andlife-skills.
iv) What changes have happened in policy and programme directions, at national or provinciallevels (e.g. in ESSP, teacher training innovations, curriculum development) which can be attributed tothe project, for example:
a) are issues of gender equity, education quality and/or child-friendly schools being reflected inESSP as it evolving, or in the SWAP discussions
b) are donor and NGO priorities, programmes or ways of working changing in terms ofmore/different attention to gender-related and education quality issues
c) are gender and equity issues being reflected in emerging policy and programmes onHIV/AIDS as it is affecting and being affected by the education system
E. Factors Influencing Project Implementation and Results
Management:a) What progress has been made on the building of the Gender Units, at national and
provincial levels? Is this proving an effective mechanism in implementing the GEMgoals in terms of their (i) mandate, structure and tasks; (ii) their role in MINEDpolicy-setting and decision-making - including ESSP and SWAP; (iii) theirlinkages/integration with the rest of the system; (iv) staff capacities and training?
b) In general (generic) terms, what have been the most facilitative and impeding factorsin the MINED-UNICEF partnership for GEM in trying to integrate the design andimplementation of a donor-supported project into broader Government policies andprogrammes.
c) How effectively have the ZIPS (school clusters) been used as a vehicle for/partnerwith GEM implementation? Have they proven more cost-effective? effective atsustaining actions? helpful for on-going teacher in-service training? outreach toparents? For all such gender-equity or school change efforts, are school clusters thebest way forward - or could they be - instead of working with schools individually?
GemEvaluat-FRep2001 46
The Gender and Education in Mozambique - Analysis of Results, Lessons and Recommendations - Final Report
d) What have been the strengths and challenges of the community-school liaison groupsworked as a means of building linkages for child-friendly schools generally (as oneof the UNICEF dimensions of CFS) and for girls in particular?
Generation and Use of Knowledge
a) How effectively have knowledge and experience from the field of gender equity and qualityeducation (from Mozambique itself and from elsewhere) been able to be incorporated into theproject? What have been the main difficulties in applying "lessons learned" or policyguidelines (e.g. UNICEF's on child-friendly schools) into the negotiation, planning andoperations of a project such as GEM: working in difficult local settings and a resource-poorGovernment system? trying to change deep-seated cultural values or traditions?
b) What has been the experience of developing and using school-based student monitoring: haveparents, teachers, students etc been able to understand and apply the ideas of indicators, datacollection, analysis etc? Has this activity made a difference in school management?
c) What progress has been made in developing indicators. For example: qualitative indicators ofreported outcomes such as "increasing interest, awareness and support" of gender issues?measurable indicators of communities asking to become involved in GEM
Risksa) What were seen as the main risks of the GEM design and methodologies?
management structures? use of outside resources, especially in poor districts? Howhave these been handled - in generic as well as specific terms - what are the lessonslearned about mitigating such common risks as creating false expectations? pushingthe system "beyond its means"?
b) What have been the risks to UNICEF itself in terms of managing a coherent and well-focused programme in trying to be responsive to the local context (and one which ischanging with initiatives like the SWAP)?
F. Windows for the Future - Sustainability;
a) What specific activities have been taken to institutionalize the ideas, knowledge or newpractices introduced by GEM into the system?
b) Are there indications of the activities becoming permanent at any level: in theparticipating families/communities, in schools - especially in the teachers, in MINEDpolicy or bureaucracy? Are there concrete indications of local ownership at the nationaland provincial/district level?
c) what are the most important changes resulting from the project that should besustained and applied at national level - how much is there a consensus on thisamong stakeholders and what are the implications of a large diversity of answers?
d) What are potential links for GEM activities, principles of action etc to allow forfurther and permanent progress for girls' education? For example, based on thelessons of GEM, how could gender be (better) incorporated into:
