Making Cents is pleased to announce that it will serve as a subcontractor to ECODIT on USAID’s recently awarded Gender Leadership, Equity, and Advancement for Development (LEAD) Task Order. This $65 million dollar activity will support DDI/GenDev in providing technical assistance and forward-leading programmatic support, thought leadership, and knowledge dissemination in gender integration to USAID Missions and Bureaus across sectors and focus areas. Making Cents will support the provision of collaborative, multi-sectoral gender integration technical assistance; the promotion of thought leadership through the development of knowledge products and learning opportunities to strengthen USAID’s programming and processes to achieve gender equality and prevent and respond to gender-based violence, specifically improving USAID’s capability to understand and incorporate gender into the economic growth sector; and the building of connectivity and enhancing knowledge sharing platforms for USAID and external stakeholders.
We look forward to supporting ECODIT and USAID’s DDI/GenDev in doing the important work of advancing gender integration across USAID’s global portfolio.
