Assessing Research for Gender-Responsiveness Sample Clauses

Assessing Research for Gender-Responsiveness. ‌ Given disruptions in normal workflow and the allocation of time to COVID-19 planning and response, reportable progress under this activity is now expected to be made in Q3 as GRAIN designs a survey among ARIA and University partners. The survey will gauge the level of gender-responsiveness within Afghan agricultural research programs, drawing from advice from MSU’s Center for Gender in a Global Context (GenCen) and other international literature that measures socially inclusive research ranging from gender-blind to gender-transformative. The results of the study will inform future training programs under Activity 3.C.3.

Assessing Research for Gender-Responsiveness. ‌ By considering gender dynamics in agricultural research, ARIA and university partners will be better able to identify best practices and technologies that are more likely to be adopted by farmers, and other agricultural stakeholders comprising both genders. However, with the absence of a socio-economic research unit at ARIA, interdisciplinary research between social scientists and physical scientists in agriculture is currently limited. Building on previous efforts to integrate measures of gender-responsiveness and social inclusion in research, this quarter GRAIN leadership sought the advice of Michigan State University’s Center for Gender in Global Context (GenCen), for collaboration in developing a rubric to guide the assessment of project and partner research activities for gender responsiveness. GenCen is an interdisciplinary center in MSU’s International Studies and Programs office focused on gender and women’s studies with faculty and students focusing on how processes of global change affect gender relations locally, nationally, and internationally. The tool, which in its first draft, will be introduced to ARIA, University, and CIMMYT partners in early Q4 for further refinement. Using these jointly created guidelines, GRAIN will incorporate an interdisciplinary focus into research planning for PY3, using this tool and in consultation with MSU expertise.
Assessing Research for Gender-Responsiveness. ‌ Reportable progress under this activity is expected to be made in Q2 as GRAIN designs a survey among ARIA and University partners to gauge the level of gender-responsiveness within Afghan agricultural research programs, drawing from advice from MSU’s Center for Gender in a Global Context (GenCen) and other international literature that measures socially inclusive research ranging from gender-blind to gender-transformative. The results of the study will inform future training programs under activity 3.C.3.
Assessing Research for Gender-Responsiveness. Similarly, to PY1, GRAIN will facilitate workshops and seminars on gender-responsive and socially inclusive agricultural research during pre-proposal grantee workshops and annual research conferences, anticipated to begin in Q2-3. Gender-responsive research design and implementation training will also be a significant component of the pre-application training and workshops for interested grantees. During drafting of revised evaluation tools for grant concepts and proposals this quarter, GRAIN placed particular emphasis on social inclusion and the importance of directly including women alongside men in research (encouraging diversity among PI and Co-PI as well as student engagement as research assistants) and considering social inclusion as an analytical approach.

The Requester and Approved Users further acknowledge that they are responsible for ensuring that all uses of the data are consistent with national, tribal, and state laws and regulations, as appropriate, as well as relevant institutional policies and procedures for managing sensitive genomic and phenotypic data. The Requester certifies that the PI is in good standing (i.e., no known sanctions) with the institution, relevant funding agencies, and regulatory agencies and is eligible to conduct independent research (i.e., is not a postdoctoral fellow, student, or trainee). The Requester and any Approved Users may use the dataset(s) only in accordance with the parameters described on the study page and in the 1 If contractor services are to be utilized, PI requesting the data must provide a brief description of the services that the contractor will perform for the PI (e.g., data cleaning services) in the research use statement of the DAR. Additionally, the Key Personnel section of the DAR must include the name of the contractor’s employee(s) who will conduct the work. These requirements apply whether the contractor carries out the work at the PI’s facility or at the contractor’s facility. In addition, the PI is expected to include in any contract agreement requirements to ensure that any of the contractor’s employees who have access to the data adhere to the NIH GDS Policy, this Data Use Certification Agreement, and the NIH Security Best Practices for Controlled-Access Data Subject to the GDS Policy. Note that any scientific collaborators, including contractors, who are not at the Requester must submit their own DAR.

  • Proposed Policies and Procedures Regarding New Online Content and Functionality By October 31, 2017, the School will submit to OCR for its review and approval proposed policies and procedures (“the Plan for New Content”) to ensure that all new, newly-added, or modified online content and functionality will be accessible to people with disabilities as measured by conformance to the Benchmarks for Measuring Accessibility set forth above, except where doing so would impose a fundamental alteration or undue burden. a) When fundamental alteration or undue burden defenses apply, the Plan for New Content will require the School to provide equally effective alternative access. The Plan for New Content will require the School, in providing equally effective alternate access, to take any actions that do not result in a fundamental alteration or undue financial and administrative burdens, but nevertheless ensure that, to the maximum extent possible, individuals with disabilities receive the same benefits or services as their nondisabled peers. To provide equally effective alternate access, alternates are not required to produce the identical result or level of achievement for persons with and without disabilities, but must afford persons with disabilities equal opportunity to obtain the same result, to gain the same benefit, or to reach the same level of achievement, in the most integrated setting appropriate to the person’s needs. b) The Plan for New Content must include sufficient quality assurance procedures, backed by adequate personnel and financial resources, for full implementation. This provision also applies to the School’s online content and functionality developed by, maintained by, or offered through a third-party vendor or by using open sources. c) Within thirty (30) days of receiving OCR’s approval of the Plan for New Content, the School will officially adopt, and fully implement the amended policies and procedures.

  • Loop Testing/Trouble Reporting 2.1.6.1 Telepak Networks will be responsible for testing and isolating troubles on the Loops. Telepak Networks must test and isolate trouble to the BellSouth portion of a designed/non-designed unbundled Loop (e.g., UVL-SL2, UCL-D, UVL-SL1, UCL-ND, etc.) before reporting repair to the UNE Customer Wholesale Interconnection Network Services (CWINS) Center. Upon request from BellSouth at the time of the trouble report, Telepak Networks will be required to provide the results of the Telepak Networks test which indicate a problem on the BellSouth provided Loop. 2.1.6.2 Once Telepak Networks has isolated a trouble to the BellSouth provided Loop, and had issued a trouble report to BellSouth on the Loop, BellSouth will take the actions necessary to repair the Loop if a trouble actually exists. BellSouth will repair these Loops in the same time frames that BellSouth repairs similarly situated Loops to its End Users. 2.1.6.3 If Telepak Networks reports a trouble on a non-designed or designed Loop and no trouble actually exists, BellSouth will charge Telepak Networks for any dispatching and testing (both inside and outside the CO) required by BellSouth in order to confirm the Loop’s working status. 2.1.6.4 In the event BellSouth must dispatch to the end-user’s location more than once due to incorrect or incomplete information provided by Telepak Networks (e.g., incomplete address, incorrect contact name/number, etc.), BellSouth will xxxx Xxxxxxx Networks for each additional dispatch required to repair the circuit due to the incorrect/incomplete information provided. BellSouth will assess the applicable Trouble Determination rates from BellSouth’s FCC or state tariffs.
