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.

Event Description
31st January 2014
Hosted by EvalPartners Equity Focused and Gender Responsive (EFGR) Task Force
Facilitated by Professor Donna M. Mertens, Gallaudet University
We are delighted to announce a WEBINAR on Enabling Gender Responsive and Equity Focused evaluation (EFGR), as part of the EvalPartners initiative. This is the second WEBINAR organised by the Task Force with particular responsibility for promoting EFGR evaluation.
The WEBINAR theme Donna Mertens will address enabling factors that are relevant to sustaining and encouraging a gender responsive/equity focused orientation for evaluative practice, with specific attention given to the issues of stakeholders’ involvement. Evaluators can play a role in advocating for gender responsive and equity focused evaluation by persuasively engaging with a full range of stakeholders, from those who represent marginalized groups to those who represent national evaluation systems and donors. A framework for addressing the cultural and linguistic complexities will be used to illustrate successful strategies and encourage participant’s application of these practices.
The presentation will be followed by a discussion where online participants will have the opportunity to raise questions and make their interventions via online chat facility.
Donna M. Mertens, PhD Donna is a professor in the Department of Education at Gallaudet University and serves as the editor for the Journal for Mixed Methods Research. She conducts and consults on gender responsive and equity focused evaluations in many countries, including Kazakhstan, India, Sri Lanka, Australia, New Zealand, Botswana, South Africa, Brazil, and Egypt. The primary focus of her work is transformative mixed-methods inquiry in diverse communities that prioritizes ethical implications of evaluation, in pursuit of social justice. Her recent books include Program Evaluation Theory to Practice: A Comprehensive Guide and Transformative Research and Evaluation.
