Cash transfers and digital payments
hold promise for women’s economic empowerment through their
potential to enhance women’s privacy, financial autonomy,
decision making and labor force participation. Yet, despite
this potential, gaps in data and evidence persist. This
brief aims to provide actionable advice on measurement for
project teams working on digital government-to-person (G2P)
projects, as well as practitioners and researchers working
on cash transfer payments and financial inclusion more
broadly. It is not meant to serve as a comprehensive guide
to women’s economic empowerment. Instead, the brief provides
short measures focused on key outcomes related to women’s
economic empowerment as a complement to more in-depth
context-specific measures. The indicators suggested in this
guide can be used for measurement in impact evaluations,
monitoring and evaluation, or general population descriptions. |
