This project aims to improve the health and wellbeing of 77,348 women, girls, men, and boys in eight districts of Abeshege and eight districts of Woliso in Ethiopia. Project activities include: (1) conducting formative research in project areas to identify and prioritize motives for key healthy household behaviours; (2) conducting behavior change campaigns, education, training, and awareness-raising; (3) empowering women health practitioners with relevant knowledge and skills; (4) providing training to key influential community, religious, political and traditional leaders on healthy water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) practices; (5) providing skills and development training to women health extension workers, community health agents, and members of the women’s development army; and (6) hosting marketing campaigns for WASH projects and services.

This project supports the production and dissemination of high-impact research that addresses inequalities faced by women and diverse populations. These populations including Indigenous Peoples, African descendants, persons with disabilities, and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and other sexual identities (LGBTQ+) persons in Latin America and the Caribbean through the Gender and Diversity Lab (GDLab) and the Gender and Diversity Knowledge Initiative of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) Group.
A continuous call for proposals funds high-quality research that contributes to closing the knowledge gaps on topics considered a priority by GDLab and its donors, is potentially scalable, and can be completed in a maximum of 24 months. GDLab seeks to act as a catalyst for creative solutions, promoting cross-sector collaboration on such crucial issues for women and diverse population groups. Among these areas are inequalities in the labour market, social assistance and social insurance, migration patterns, human capital development, digital inclusion, access to health services, financial markets, entrepreneurship, political representation, promotion of sustainable development, unpaid and paid care work and the prevention of sexual and gender-based violence. GDLab also seeks to assess the impacts of the economic and health crisis associated with the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and to contribute to the design of recovery strategies for women and other diverse populations in the region.
