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.

Exploring opportunities
Hi fellow evaluators,
Brief introduction: I am a researcher with more than 6 years of experience in diverse industry segments. Currently, I am working as a Brands Consultant with a WPP group organisation, Kantar Millward Brown and helping clients in identifying key communication and messaging levers for their brand advertisements.
What am I looking for: I am looking to re-enter the M&E space and I would really appreciate any help in this regard.
Experience in M&E: Earlier, I was associated with Catalyst Management Services as a Quantitative researcher where I worked on different facets of an impact evaluation, right from writing proposals, coming up with an appropriate evaluation design and arriving at a representative sample to actual implementation on the ground, training the field enumerators and collecting qualitative and quantitative data. I have worked in areas including agriculture, livelihoods, education and gender inequality.
How can I add value: Having worked in the field of advanced analytics, I am now equipped with analytical techniques such as path modelling (or Structural Equation Modelling), decision tree analysis (using CHAID) and Bayesian Modelling. This is, of course, on top of the usual techniques that we use in impact evaluations such as linear/logistic regressions, significance testing, propensity score matching, sampling, etc. I firmly believe that these advanced techniques can add a lot of value to our existing impact evaluation landscape.
I am also attaching my CV for your reference.
Thank you for your time and effort.
Best regards,
Puneet Gupta
