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.

Macro evaluation of DFID's Empowerment and Accountability and Strategic Vision for Girls and Women policy frame‏s

I'm working with Itad to share the findings of the recently launched macro evaluations of DFID's work on Empowerment and Accountability and the Strategic Vision (SV) for Girls and Women.

We have just launched a new platform containing our early findings including info graphics which provide interesting insight into DFID's E&A and SV portfolios http://www.itad.com/knowledge-and-resources/dfids-macro-evaluations/

As part of this work, we have also developed the first public database of projects under DFID’s Empowerment and Accountability and Strategic Vision for Girls and Women policy frames.  The database, compiled as part of macro evaluations, includes 529 projects relevant to the two policies. As an openly available resource, the database is accessible to anyone wishing to learn more about DFID’s work in these two policy areas and search projects supported. http://eppi.ioe.ac.uk/webdatabases4/Intro.aspx?ID=13
