Equilo is a disruptive gender analysis app. It's our mission to inspire transformative gender equality and social inclusion by using smart tech to provide better, faster, and more cost-effective gender analysis and project management tools customized for development planning and emergency response worldwide.Our web-based application for customized gender analysis and action plans (GAAPs) across 20 development and relief sectors, from clean energy and agriculture to health and education.Most development and emergency response organizations recognize the need for gender analyses to improve the targeting and effectiveness of their investments and relief efforts. These analyses help ensure that projects make the greatest impact across communities by reducing unintended consequences, improving results and efficiency, and embedding change through innovation. Early, action-oriented gender analysis is vital to tackle gender inequality and improve project efficiency and results. However, there are shortcomings in timely adoption, execution, quality, and consistency. Procurement and contractual delays, shortage of expert gender specialists, and manual research and data collection techniques lead to major delays in completing gender analyses. As a result, projects are often planned and budgeted without early-stage consideration of gender analysis and action planning.We harness big data and smart tech to transform gender analysis. We apply deep-level insight to deliver actionable advice. And inspire individuals to participate and lead - empowering governments, aid agencies and NGOs to make a difference in communities worldwide. Helping you create change and overcome obstacles, we add value at every step by replacing old-fashioned research with a pioneering web app and project management tools. The result: a far more cost-effective, faster route to clearer equality insights that translate into actions. Creating inclusive communities. And positive outcomes.
