This resource includes both the Guide to Using the Placemat Ready Reckoner and the Placemat Ready Reckoner itself, designed to help leaders embed gender equity and intersectional thinking into everyday decision-making. Together, they support teams to assess where policies, programs and initiatives sit on the spectrum from gender-blind to gender-transformative, and to identify practical steps toward more equitable outcomes. The guide provides context, reflective prompts and practical ways to use the tool, while the placemat offers a quick, accessible framework to support better decisions in planning, meetings, supervision and review processes.
