Gender-Based Violence (GBV) is not just a social issue, it’s a systemic challenge that undermines agricultural value chains.
In rural and isolated areas, GBV threatens women’s safety, limits their economic participation, and weakens food security. When women cannot work safely, entire communities lose resilience, and businesses lose productivity. Climate resilience strategies that overlook gendered risks leave communities exposed and women vulnerable.
Ending GBV is essential for building equitable, sustainable, and climate-resilient agri-food systems; and it’s not only a human rights imperative, but also central to climate adaptation and economic stability.
The good news? Solutions work. Programs like the Women’s Safety Accelerator Fund (WSAF) demonstrate that addressing GBV can enhance productivity and strengthen workforce morale and brand reputation. Safe, inclusive workplaces aren’t just good ethics, they’re smart business.

Measuring What Matters: Unlocking Data for Gender Equality
Pierre De Boisséson, Economist, Gender Programme, OECD Development Centre Lauren Harrison, Policy Analyst and Team Lead, Data Ecosystems & Inclusion, PARIS21 Annette Griessel, Deputy Director General, National Planning Coordination, Department of Planning, Monitoring and Evaluation, South Africa Renata Spada, Group Talent Director / Head of Fifty-Fifty Programme, ENGIE Sarah Kemp, Global Women’s Health and ESG Policy Lead, Organon Moderated by Bathylle Missika, Head of Division, Networks, Partnerships and Gender, OECD Development Centre Tuesday, 13th July 2021: 17.00-18.30 CET …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. Whether by a private company, an international NGO, a national or local government, or a philanthropic organisation, the effectiveness of efforts to address gender inequality cannot be monitored or evaluated if solid data is not available. Areas of intersection, such as the disproportionate effect of the COVID-19 or climate crises on women, are woefully understudied and undercounted, meaning that targeted interventions cannot be designed. Likewise, long term cause and effect such as discriminatory social institutions or the impact of infertility on national GDP cannot be analysed without consistent and accurate access to open gender data. More and better gender data can lead to better solutions and improve accountability; solutions that have the power to unlock $3 trillion in economic potential across the global economy.
This DEV Talk will bring together experts and private sector and government representatives, to discuss why the lack of data about women’s lives and livelihoods around the world persists despite recent efforts and a global recognition of the importance of the issue. They will explore what can be done to increase awareness, prioritisation, and support from multilateral partnerships to unlock the potential of gender data for the COVID-19 recovery and beyond.
