From Risk to Resilience: The Business Case for Addressing Gender-Based Violence in Agricultural Value Chain

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.

What do you want to do ?

Thank you all soooo much!

So far the list had 3 languages. But you can add articles in other languages. Someone recently created a section for German at the end of the list, you can do the same with the language you're adding. I'm trying to keep some "order" in the way articles are classified, and avoid double entries. It's getting tougher as more people add their own resources ... but it's great too, so I am not complaining!

As you are aware, quite a few organisations are now compiling comprehensive lists too, so giving links to portals and websites (instead of giving links to individual articles) is a good option. I know that a few large organizations are now trying to systematize data collection and sharing on the topic, this list is with them too, so hopefully whatever is added to it will go into the bigger "collective pot".

Thank you all again so much.

Claudy
