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.

The official launch will coincide with two other events, as important as the main one:
- the organization of the first ever decentralized PIFED called PICFED (the French version of IPDET) in Antananarivo for two weeks with the ENAP Québec
- and the official  launch of the development of a National Policy document for Evaluation in Madagascar, also a first of its kind!
The event will be attended by the Prime Minister, Ministers from the central Government, Members Parliament, high ranking government officials, Donors Representatives, representatives from the private sector and the civil society, representatives from the National Academy and Universities, and of course professional evaluators members of MASSE. The event will be special as the President just reminded in a recent public speech this week that the culture of results will be the rule and evaluation the tool!
