<p>DFID has not made an overall assessment of the effect of funding process on specialist
organisations and female beneficiaries. However, DFID has taken a number of steps
to increase the range of organisations funded and the accessibility of its funds.</p><p>
</p><p>DFID’s 2016 Civil Society Partnership Review recommended a shift towards more
open, competitive programmes. This opened up opportunities for a wider range of civil
society organisations. This was supported by the 2017 Supplier Review, when DFID committed
to cutting red tape to boost competition and open up DFID’s market to a wider range
of organisations.</p><p> </p><p>All DFID programmes are required to consider how the
programme will contribute to reducing gender inequality. All programmes are encouraged
to collect data disaggregated by sex, age, disability and geography to understand
who our programmes are reaching, in line with our commitments to the Data Disaggregation
Plan and Inclusive Data Charter.</p>
