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.

Calling Londoners: Gender and Evidence roundtable Thursday October 5th 15:30
Calling all Gender and EBPM people. On Think Tanks and the Overseas Development Institute are hosting a round-table this Thursday at 15:30 in London/UK. If you're in London, message me if you want to attend.
We're going to be discussing the intersection of Gender & Evidence, and how evidence use is gendered. We'll also be discussing the ideal researcher which can be a gendered process!This is an opportunity to bring together two inter-connected debates that we have been having over the last few years about gendered implications of policy research, on the one hand, and the more practical aspects of the challenges and opportunities that women face in policy research institutions, or think tanks, on the other.
ODI and On Think Tanks would like to explore these issues over a round table with interventions from researchers and practitioners with the objective of developing a research agenda to take these issues forward establishing a possible international working group on the subject.
For more information on the issues that we would be discussion please visit: https://onthinktanks.org/series/women-in-think-tanks/ and “Sex, knowledge and society: Is science gendered?” Hosted by Natasha Mitchell.
