Re-Thinking Gender in Social Development

As part of the Farms of the Future project, CCAFS together with researchers at Oxford University, have been working to identify areas of western Nepal that are currently experiencing the expected future climate of Beora, a small farming community in Rupandehi District. The project involves a series of farmer exchanges, in which farmers from Beora will visit their “future climates”, to help them learn about how communities cope with higher temperatures and different rainfall patterns.

More about this training

This training aims at preparing social development specialists, researchers, consultants and partners to integrate gender considerations into their work. In particular, this course helps with linking analysis, action, and outcomes to close the key gender gaps.
Social development specialists are probably already convinced of the value of gender equality and have operational experience in its implementation through sectoral and regional programs. Against this background, this training will encourage a shift in the way researchers and practitioners think about gender in their operations. It will also address closing the gap between gender awareness and actualizing gender equality outcomes.
