The purpose of this study is to gauge what kind of policies, tools and accountability mechanisms are in place at partner organizations with respect to gender equality and child/youth protection. The aim is to find out if and what specific policies exist and the level of partner interaction with UNHCR to implement AGDM through information sharing and training. This report is not meant to evaluate UNHCR partners’ policies and tools. Rather, it is meant to make a contribution to UNHCR and partners’ work by documenting progress and good practice as well as obstacles and challenges they face in mainstreaming.
