Genre et inclusion
Au fur et à mesure que les transferts monétaires continuent à se développer, les parties prenantes demandent une meilleure prise en compte des problématiques de genre et d’inclusion car « des transferts monétaires sensibles au genre qui tiennent compte des disparités et répondent équitablement aux besoins de toutes les personnes affectées par une crise ont le potentiel d’avoir un impact positif sur les femmes et les filles en les protégeant davantage et en favorisant leur autonomisation, tout en renforçant les impacts spécifiques au secteur, qui peuvent rendre les ménages et les communautés ayant vécu une crise plus résilient·es et plus autonomes. » (Directives pour le chantier du Grand Bargain sur les transferts monétaires et le genre). La pandémie de COVID-19 a accru l’urgence de l’assistance car elle a affecté les femmes et les groupes exclus en particulier en augmentant la charge de travail de soin, en réduisant les opportunités d’emploi de manière disproportionnée et en exposant les femmes à des difficultés financières plus fortes et à davantage de violences basées sur le genre.
Le CALP Network continue d’ancrer son travail sur le symposium #GenreEtTransfertsMonétaires organisé en 2018 à Nairobi et sur l’engagement inscrit dans le programme pour l’action collective (Agenda for Collective Action) qui en a résulté. Le rapport « La situation mondiale des transferts monétaires en 2020 » fait état de progrès notables en matière de genre et de transferts monétaires, alors que ce domaine était marqué par des lacunes importantes en matière de données probantes dans le dernier rapport. De nouvelles directives ont été produites sur le genre et les transferts monétaires, ainsi que le genre et les VBG, et des efforts ont été réalisés en termes de synthèse et d’identification de données probantes plus rigoureuses. L’attention, portée initialement aux VBG, s’oriente désormais vers l’égalité entre les genres et l’adaptation de la programmation afin qu’elle ne tienne plus seulement compte du genre mais intègre cette problématique de manière transversale, et même transformatrice. Toutefois, bien que nous remarquions des progrès au niveau technique partout dans le monde, cela ne s’est pas traduit par des changements ancrés en termes de planification, de mise en œuvre et de suivi.
Priorités actuelles
Nous continuerons à travailler étroitement avec les responsables du chantier auxiliaire du Grand Bargain sur les transferts monétaires, CARE et ONU Femmes pour mettre en œuvre le plan de travail. Le CALP Network va continuer à encourager les acteurs de l’assistance monétaire à prendre en compte davantage de problématiques afin d’être plus inclusifs, et de favoriser une meilleure compréhension de la manière dont nous pourrions utiliser les transferts monétaires pour ne pas nous contenter de ne pas nuire mais aussi lutter contre ces inégalités socio-économiques par le biais de la prestation d’autres services et modalités de soutien.
