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.

Your inputs on Outcome Mapping, Gender and Equity proposed resource
Dear colleagues,
Please do pass this on to your networks. We are looking for those who use OM (fully or partly) and can contribute to the resource. We will be acknowledging all who contribute. Please take a moment for the email and do fill in the attached form. Your inputs are extremely valued and appreciated!
From Heidi Schaeffer, OMLC Learning Community Steward
Sonal Zaveri and I are working on a practical resource to strengthen capacity across the OMLC to embed equity and gender-transformative thinking and practice in Outcome Mapping. This resource is aimed at field-level practitioners using OM, or with experience and interest in the use of OM to strengthen equity and gender transformative change. The resource will include guidance and case examples derived in part from conversations with OMLC members. Several OMLC members are participating as part of the research and collaboration group, at this point including: Julius Nyangaga, Florence Etta and Sarah Earl. If you have any questions or want to become involved with the resource please complete the survey as a first step and let us know your interests.
The survey is designed for practitioners who have tried to incorporate equity, anti-racism/anti-oppression and gender transformative approaches in their use of Outcome Mapping during M&E design and evaluation.
We invite you to take about 15 minutes (there are only 9 questions) to share your experiences, challenges and successes. Your contributions are sincerely appreciated. With your permission your name will be acknowledged in the resource. If you are interested, you may be able to share your experience in a webinar for the OMLC later this year. Thank you for your time and support of this work.
Please complete this survey by Wednesday June 30th https://forms.gle/mA8rY14E7zASXigT6
You can write to Simon Hearn, coordinator@outcomemapping.ca if you have any questions about the survey.
Please do respond... we are co-creating a valuable resource!
Best
Sonal and Heidi
