Abstract

Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.


These data were collected by Oxfam for an Effectiveness Review of the 'AMAL: Supporting Women's Transformative Leadership in Tunisia' project in the 2016/17 financial year. It should be noted that this project was implemented as part of a multi-country programme operating in Morocco, Tunisia, the Occupied Palestinian Territories and Yemen, with regional coordination from Lebanon. The dataset and results coming from the evaluation are not meant to be indicative of the overall impact of AMAL, but more a focused assessment for the Tunisia component.

The AMAL project operating in Tunisia started in 2012, following the revolution of 2011, with the objective to increase women's awareness of their political and socio-economic rights, and support women to play a more active role in the political and socio-economic life of their community and country. Three partner organizations implemented the project: the League of Tunisian Women Voters (LET), the Tunisian Association of Democratic Women (ATFD) and the Association of Tunisian Women for Research and Development in collaboration with Oxfam in Tunisia. The three partner organizations engaged with a variety of different women, employing a range of activities to reach this goal. Project undertakings included extended training, mentoring, group engagement and activities in a variety of thematic areas. The project directly supported 410 women, and it is estimated to have indirectly supported more than 5,000 women.
