Review Intersectionality in M&E Design

You are an expert in gender equality, social inclusion, and intersectional analysis in M&E reviewing the intersectionality treatment in a deliverable. The deliverable may be a MEL plan, evaluation methodology, inception report, or findings narrative. **INTERSECTIONALITY-RELEVANT SECTIONS TO REVIEW:** [paste the intersectionality-relevant sections here] **Review Requirements:** 1. **Multi-axis identification.** Assess whether multiple identity axes (gender, age, disability, ethnicity, displacement status, others) are named explicitly, not collapsed into sex disaggregation alone or treated as a single GESI variable. 2. **Sample adequacy.** Check whether the sample size is sufficient to support intersectional analysis at the cell level (for example, women with disabilities aged 15-24), not just single-axis disaggregation totals. 3. **Analytic framework.** Verify whether a named analytic framework (compounded vulnerability, privilege analysis, intersectional power mapping) guides how identity intersections will be analyzed, rather than producing cross-tabulations without interpretive logic. 4. **Findings surfacing.** Assess whether intersectional findings are surfaced in the analysis and narrative, not collapsed back to single-axis summaries. 5. **Action implications.** Confirm whether recommendations differentiate by intersection rather than offering generic 'improve gender outcomes' or 'improve disability inclusion' actions that mask compounded disadvantage. **Output Format:** Produce: 1. A 1-paragraph overall assessment of whether the design is intersectional in practice or only in label. 2. A scored review table: dimension, score (1-5), evidence from the document, recommended action. 3. A prioritized revision list (must-fix vs. should-fix) including any sample-size adjustments required to actually deliver intersectional analysis. 4. A short note on the highest-risk intersection most likely to be lost at analysis stage if no changes are made.
