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.

project follow-up method (Expert evaluation needed)
Hello everyone,
I just finished writing my MSc thesis on project follow+up method based on the RBM framework. The method is to be used for both ongoing and completed projects. The idea is to evaluate changes in inputs and outputs at different points of a project life cycle.
I am however required to have the method evaluated by experts for learneability, understaandibility and rigour.
Will anyone of you be able to help me with this? I have summarised the introduction and evaluation criteria in two pages.
Do let me know if you can help me with this.
Thanks
Gideon

Here is a response
Dear Rituu,
Great to hear from you and thanks for facilitating the peer-review of this tool.However, I opened the two-page PDF document mentioned in your post and I found it really difficult to provide some valuable feedback to the MSc student in question, based on some very generic description of the RBM literature which he based his work on. It is important that he shares his artifact (that is, the actual tool) if he wants to receive a constructive feedback and that, before doing it, he also targets some scholars and field implementers (e.g., those whose names he may have come across in the course of his research/prior professional experience).Mine is just a humble contribution to this discussion and my intention is to make sure that the student who worked on this follow-up tool will benefit from a sound peer-review (e.g., receiving some appropriate and competent feedback).Best of luck to Gideon and all the other talented Africans who are currently completing their university degrees both within and outside of Africa!Best,MicheleMichele Tarsilla, Ph.D. in EvaluationEvaluation Capacity Development Group (ECDG), Vice-President

Dear Gideon
I think this method is great, as unless input and processes are in place the outputs, outcomes and impact cannot be achieved.
I am interested in evaluating this method from the lens of learnability, understanding and rigour; as well as gender and equity
Best
Ranjani
