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.

Dear Ranjani- thank you for this suggestion- it is a good idea which ISST will consider- we can possibly tie this in with a policy seminar that we are planning for March/April 2015. On another note though, as far as I am aware, the IOE is no longer functional, so it will have to be with the involvement of other government officials.

I would like to suggest a discussion in India in 2015 on "Learning from, and strengthening of, government managed evaluations from a gender and equity lens". I am wondering if this could be a joint event of ISST (which manages engendering project through evaluation), Independent Office of Evaluation, and UN Women. If ISST could mull over this it would nice

I would like to suggest the formal creation of a programme of traineeships. Any vacancies for evaluators requires multiple years of experience, and it is very hard to get that experience if you have not gone through the formal credential procedures which are very expensive and again require experience. SO, as an emerging evaluator i am finding myself in a bit of a vicious circle where it is difficult to apply all  the valuable things I have learned from the M and courses E and BetterEvaluation. I would love to contribute to the creation of such a traineeship system, where experienced evaluators in different fields accompany or supervise emergent evaluators.

Thank you.
