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.

Conducting a gender sensitive participatory implementation strategy for green infrastructure development in public spaces
Hello,
I am currently working on a project that will involve developing a gender sensitive and participatory implementation strategy for green infrastructure development in an urban area in the Middle East. The main objective of this project is to engage local authorities and communities (particularly women and vulnerable segments of the population) in the whole process, and for them to be involved in the development of the gender sensitive and participatory implementation strategy, which would then be used when replicating the project in other areas.
I was wondering if anyone has tips and/or suggestions on relevant literature that might be useful for me as i develop an approach and methodology for this assignment.
Many thanks,
Hana
