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.

as a gender head I got an input to my work I want to share your exprience of empowering women in your orgnization
Justina Tembo
how are you doing it to empower women as am working for an umbrella org. of women groups in zambia
DR. Abosede Adebiyi
Is gender synonymous to women? Gender in its true definition is not the same as sex classification, but rather the psychological disposition leading to masculinity and feminism.
Rahel Teka
you are right gender is the role of both women and men but the gap or the problem occur on women because men are the primary decision makers in the vast majority of governing bodies, companies and communities throughout the world.
DR. Abosede Adebiyi
Then we may need not equate gender to sex-type. We now need to have a deep look at the over bearing nature of man over woman.
