Guideline on Gender Mainstreaming in ODA
Ministry of Women’s Affairs (MoWA) 2020
There are two key areas of ODA to work on gender equality and women’s empowerment in Cambodia: 1) Gender Equality as a principal sector and 2) Gender Mainstreaming as a thematic marker.
1. Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment as a principal sector and sub-sectors
(i) Legal and Policy Framework to promote gender equality, women’s empowerment and women’s right
(ii) Gender research, Statistic, and M&E system and framework
(iii) Mechanisms, Networking and Partnership to promote gender mainstreaming and women’s empowerment
(iv) Accountability and Gender Responsive Investments
(v) Positive Public Behavior towards to the promotion of gender equality and women’s right.
2. Guideline on gender mainstreaming as a thematic marker (% of each marker)
Four levels of gender analyses in sectors: i. Gender-blind, ii. Gender-sensitive, iii. Gender-responsive, and iv. Gender-transformative
(i) Gender-blind: disbursements made without a gender analysis or any gender sensitivity promotion activities.
(ii) Gender-sensitive: 1) Gender awareness and gender mainstreaming capacity development activities, 2) Conduct gender analysis or gender assessment within the project/programme.
(iii) Gender-responsive: 1) Based on a gender analysis, these expenditures are intended to provide different responses to meet the practical needs of men and women. 2) Budget aimed at strengthening the gender machinery, for instance through capacity building and expertise of Gender Mainstreaming Action Group (GMAG) in line ministries or in partner institutions and women’s leadership programme.
(iv) Gender-transformative: With the clear approach to support gender-sensitive and responsive above, the programme or project has specific actions targeting changing gender gap in the sector, gender relations and roles. (See examples). The expenditures address the strategic interests of women and men (strategic gender need) and aim to contribute to long term structural and sustainable changes in societies to promote gender equality.
Some examples of specific actions targeting to changing gender gaps in sectors in Cambodia:
How to score the levels of ODA Mainstreaming to Gender as a thematic marker
|
Level |
Definition |
Score |
|
(i) Gender-blind |
Disbursements made without a gender analysis. In order to address gender issues in the project and programme cycle, the gender analysis is the foundation stage to assist the gender issue/gap in order to inform the scope, specific areas/cases of the gap and the major gender impact. |
NO |

(ii) Gender-sensitive |
Two stages/components to define gender-sensitive:
|
1% - 20% |
|
(iii) Gender-responsive |
Three stages/components of gender-responsive:
|
21% - 50%

(iv) Gender-transformative |
Gender-transformative is the highest level of gender mainstreaming. Three stages or groups below:

Guidance for the Use of the Climate Change Thematic Marker
Please estimate what % of the budget (or expected results/benefits) of your project are related to climate change mitigation or adaptation, and use the table below as guidance for choosing your marker:

To support the global commitment to realize the 2030 Agenda on Sustainable Development, the Royal Government of Cambodia has contextualized the Sustainable Development Goals to the national context and craft a fully localized set of targets – the Cambodia SDGs Framework. To align with this commitment, the Cambodian Rehabilitation and Development Board of the Council for the Development of Cambodia (CRDB/CDC) has created a new feature in the Cambodia ODA Database, as outlined in the Question 15c, to track and record the support from development partners.
The table below indicates the 18 goals, listed in the question 15c, and derived from the Cambodia Sustainable Development Goals Framework 2016-2030.

How to choose and identify the percentage of budget support to CSDGs
To choose specific CSDGs, data entry focal points may refer to the main sector(s) identified in question 15a and consult with the list of sectors and Goals below. This Guideline is not intended to be prescriptive but, rather, provides a broader aspect regarding investment-related to CSDGs. For further detail on how to identify CSDGs that the project supports, please refer to the CSDGs framework.
NOTE: Choose NO more than 3 Goals by filling the percentage based on activities and programme budget that support CSDGs, and the total percentage shall not exceed 100%. The chosen Goal(s) should be consistent with question 15a and 15b (for gender and climate change), explicitly mentioned in the project document, or have a specific objective or dedicated fund.
