Pendampingan Pemanfaatan Rumah Dataku dengan Mainstreaming Gender untuk Perencanaan Program Pemberdayaan Perempuan di Gunungkidul

Abstract

Rumah Dataku is a data and information center to support community-based program planning. However, often the available data and the analysis patterns carried out do not pay attention to gender aspects, so that the programs designed are less responsive to women's needs. This article aims to analyze assistance efforts in utilizing Rumah Dataku by prioritizing gender mainstreaming. This article uses a qualitative approach with a case study method in Gunungkidul Regency which has implemented Rumah Dataku. The results show that effective assistance in the use of gender-based data can improve the quality of program planning that supports women's empowerment. The assistance provided involves training in collecting gender sensitive data, analyzing gender data, and preparing policy recommendations that support women. The recommendation from this research is the need to increase the capacity of data managers and local stakeholders in understanding and applying the principles of women's empowerment at every stage of program planning.
