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.

Link to the webinar on Challenges that Complexity Poses for Monitoring and Evaluation and Systemic Thinking as a Means to Cope

Colleagues,

I have been asked to post this webinar I gave 13 April  hosted by the Human Systems Dynamics Institute. It was part of a series titled Systems and Peace: Emerging Frontiers Webinar Series 

Topic: Challenges that Complexity Poses for Monitoring and Evaluation and Systemic Thinking as a Means to Cope 
Purpose: Explore the strengths and weaknesses of how Wilson-Grau broaches the subject of complexity and systems thinking with clients who engage him to support them in developing monitoring (or M&E) mechanisms or to evaluate their work.
Here is the link to the recording: http://hsdinstitute.adobeconnect.com/p17na0yxtn6/. I made a presentation in under 25 minutes and then we had 35+ minutes of questions and answers. 

Best wishes,

Ricardo
