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

Please join us for this upcoming webinar to hear global NGO Oxfam share their experience with providing localized web forms in the field.

Title - Learn how to provide web forms in local languages with Oxfam

Date - Wednesday, October 28, 2020 9 AM EDT

Link  - https://www.surveycto.com/events/oxfam-webforms-webinar  

The team at Oxfam have been ahead of the curve in their quick adoption of a new web form translation functionality on the SurveyCTO platform. This is not uncharacteristic, given Oxfam’s broader investment in localization and inclusion of local partners and communities.

 

Oxfam is a global organization at the forefront of fighting poverty around the world. Data collection is of course key to planning, implementing, and being broadly effective with such a mandate. While it may seem small, having your data collection instruments easily accessible and not slowed down by language barriers is a rather large improvement. Through providing a fully localized web data collection experience, Oxfam aims to make their programs more inclusive and effective.

Oxfam will share their best practices on data collection localization more broadly, with specific mention of:

  • The experience of preparing web form interface translations. 
  • Deploying localized web form interfaces on surveys.
  • Feedback from in-country staff on localized form filling experiences.

To learn more about some of the work that Oxfam will be discussing, see this article
