As part of the new strategy preparation, USAID/Senegal requested assistance with a gender assessment. This study was conducted from March 20 to April 11, 2010. It was supported jointly by the Women in Development Indefinite Quantity Contract (WID IQ...C) Task Order 1 ShortTerm Technical Assistance and Training (STTA&T) and the USAID/Senegal mission.
