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.

Organizational partnerships for gender equality
Could anyone recommend any resources (ideally academic literature) on good practices for organizational partnerships conducive to gender equality? Any leads (or ideas on other ways to frame this question, entry points, repository of resources, etc.) are welcome! Many thanks.

Hi Rituu,
A client (a UN agency) has asked us to advise on the successful organizational partnership conditions which are conducive to delivering gender equality impact. This is a rather bulky question which we are in the process of breaking down. While we (Universalia) have practical experience and knowledge in this area, we are also looking at academic literature to inform the guidance note we are producing. Do you have any resources to recommend? Or any specific organizations which work specifically in this area?
Thank you,
Emmanuel
