Hungry for gender equality: Global food 50/50 2022 report: A review of the gender-and-equity-related policies and practices of 51 organizations active in the global food system

Abstract

The second annual Global Food 50/50 Report, a joint initiative of Global Health 50/50, the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), and UN Women, reviews the gender- and equity-related policies and practices of 51 global food system organizations. The report highlights the progress, or lack thereof, made by food organizations in promoting diversity and equality in their leadership and decision-making. In addition to the annual leadership analysis, this year’s report assesses the board members of governing bodies, finding gender inequalities in board representation and dominance by nationals from high-income countries.
