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

Dear Colleagues, 
Verghese Kurien Policy Lab (VKPL) at IRMA has been working with UNICEF Gujarat on various aspects of COVID, its impact on rural households (food security and nutrition), and identification of coping mechanisms that may have provided insurance type effects during the pandemic. We will be presenting our first set of findings on the extent of information management in Gram Panchayats. Our findings are based on a survey of 175 GPs during the 2nd and 3rd phases of lockdown.
The details of the webinar are provided below and I take the opportunity to invite you for the webinar on 6th Aug, from 2.30 PM. A group of development practitioners (please see the attached agenda and banner)  along with VKPL will be sharing their understanding on the COVID response of GPs.
