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.

Event Description
As the world moves further into the many unknowns of what it means to adapt to life with COVID-19, it is clear that women are being disproportionately impacted in myriad ways. StoryCenter’s Silence Speaks program is partnering with Mumbai-based journalist and Sahiyo co-founder Aarefa Johari to offer a safe, online space where South Asian women’s personal struggles and moments of courage can be shared and virtual community can be cultivated.
During this free, one and a half hour webinar, participants (maximum of ten women) will be invited to express moments of daily life that have challenged them deeply or uplifted their spirits. Silence Speaks co-founder Amy Hill will draw on her years of experience with trauma-informed methods to support women in telling every-day stories of these unprecedented times. Selected stories will, with permission, be published online by StoryCenter; storytellers can request anonymous publication, if they wish.
Please join us at 8 pm Delhi time on Thursday, April 16, to share a story.
This webinar is co-sponsored by Sahiyo and StoryCenter. Sahiyo works globally to end female genital mutilation and cutting (FGMC), and StoryCenter’s Silence Speaks program documents personal stories of women’s health and rights globally.
