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.

When it comes to doing the work of systems change, many organizations find that shifting mental models—mindsets and deeply held beliefs that influence how we think, what we do, and how we talk—within their stakeholders is one of the most challenging yet critical components to activate real and lasting change.
What does it mean to “shift” mental models? Where would one start, and how does one overcome the many challenges that aim to keep historical mental models in place?
Following up on the earlier webinar The Six Conditions of Systems Change, join a discussion on June 17 with FSG and New Profit as we take a deeper dive into one of those specific conditions—how to promote and encourage mindset shifts within your stakeholders and communities. We’ll hear stories from the field from the national civic organization PushBlack and community-focused efforts from the Hogg Foundation as well as a primer on mental models from the Frameworks Institute.
If you’ve ever wondered about how to tackle one of the most difficult components of systems change, register for this learning discussion.
Can’t make the webinar time? By registering, you will also be notified when the recording is available to watch at your convenience.
When: Monday, June 17
Time: 3:00pm – 4:00pm ET
