The purpose of this tool is to provide a standard method of conducting an organisational assessment on gender and diversity, focusing on five key thematic areas: political will and leadership, organizational culture, resources and capacities, programme delivery and implementation, and accountability. The assessment can be completed as a standalone process, or as complementary to the Organisational Capacity Assessment and Certification (OCAC) or Branch Organisational Capacity Assessment (BOCA). The findings of the assessment can form the basis of recommendations on how to strengthen gender and diversity in all areas of the organisation.

This tool is designed by the ICRC to give a quick indication of how their teams engage with disability inclusion. It is not meant in any way to be judgmental or focus on what is not achieved, rather it is meant to highlight a few key issues around inclusion and also help us find ways forward to promote inclusion if the need is felt to be valuable by participants. The tool helps them to focus their interviews with each team, and also help them note progress made over the year.
