Presentation by Elisa Scalise and Renee Giovarelli
Co-founders of Resource Equity
Global awareness of two land tenure issues--the importance of recognizing and promoting land rights for women and the problem of insecure collective land and resource tenure rights--is rising. The importance of managing collectively held land, both for those who use it and for the environment, has grown increasingly clear. In fact, studies have estimated that as much as 65 percent of the world’s land is held under collective tenure—customary, community-based tenure systems. Securing that tenure is important for protecting the rights of those communities, and has been shown to improve resource management.
However, efforts to secure community land tenure, generally through documenting and registering rights, are still new. In particular, to date, the conversation around securing collective rights to land has paid little attention to women’s rights, and the effects of formalizing the rights of the collective on women are not well studied. Focusing on securing collective land and resource rights without considering gender differences within communities has the potential to severely disadvantage women who are very often socially, economically, and politically excluded.
This report on gender issues and best practices in collective land tenure projects seeks to begin filling this gap, by taking a detailed look at how six collective tenure land projects addressed gender differences. The six case studies include projects in China, Ghana, India, Kyrgyzstan, Namibia, and Peru. The case studies are program assessments focusing primarily on how each project approached gender, what the gender-differentiated impacts have been in terms of project participation and benefits, and what lessons can be learned and best practices can be drawn from these projects.

Measuring Gender-Transformative Change in Agriculture: A review of the literature and promising practices
February 16, 2017
Presenters: Steven Cole, Cynthia McDougall, & Afrina Choudhury from WorldFish & the FISH CGIAR Research Program; Emily Hilenbrand & Pranati Mohanraj from CARE USA
Discussant: Ruth Meinzen-Dick (IFPRI)
Gender inequalities are recognized as both a major driver of poverty and an impediment to agricultural development. Understanding complex processes of social change remains a critical challenge for effective agricultural development programming that advances gender equality. Gender transformative approaches represent a move beyond “business as usual” gender integration in programming towards the creation of an enabling social environment and more equitable formal and informal institutions that expand life choices for women and men.
At the heart of their work, WorldFish (in particular, through its FISH and Aquatic Agricultural Systems cross-cutting research program) and CARE USA (through its global Pathways to Empowerment agriculture program) strive to apply gender transformative approaches (GTA) in designing, implementing, and learning from agricultural development interventions. However, committing to GTA implementation approaches also requires a transformation of measurements and indicators of change, an area of research that remains relatively under-developed in the agriculture sector.
In this webinar, CARE and WorldFish Center jointly present a literature review of promising indicators and tools for measuring gender-transformative change in agriculture, along with some practical case studies and the implications of applying such approaches in practice.

• Enhanced gender equality in access to and control
of resources and decision making
• Improved policies and institutions
• Scaling up (knowledge sharing and learning)
16. Gender gaps in Agriculture
• Sticky gaps
• Raises big questions…how to close this gap? Is ‘closing
the gap’ enough to lead to lasting, positive
development outcomes?
• Consequences of inequality being addressed, but not
17. Gender equality and Economic growth
• Asymmetrical relationship
• More consistent and robust evidence that
gender equality contributes to economic growth
– less the other way (Kabeer and Natali 2013)
• Interrelationships too weak to be self-sustaining

22. AAS Gender Research Agenda
• How do social norms and gender relations influence
agricultural development outcomes for marginalized
social groups?
– In-depth social and gender analysis
• What combinations of technical and transformative
interventions foster gender transformative change in
different contexts?
– Design of technical + transformative interventions based on the analysis
and Participatory development of Theories of change
– Integration of transformative interventions in Participatory Action Research
under various initiatives in program
– Systematic testing of combinations of interventions
• How do these transformative changes contribute to
agricultural development outcomes like poverty
reduction, food and nutrition security?
– Development of metrics to evaluate transformative change and its
23. Some transformative change
mechanisms
• Household approaches (SIDA, IFAD)
• Behavioural change communication and African
Transformation Methodology (Johns Hopkins University)
• Working with faith leaders (Channels of Hope – World Vision)
• Learning from Dimitra project on gender in communication
for development (FAO)
• Gender Equity Movement in Schools (GEMS – ICRW)
• Collective action and networks
24. Generating evidence to demonstrate
contributions
• Theory-based and participatory designs – understanding if and how change
happened
• Qualitative comparative and quasi-experimental designs will be woven in as
appropriate – to understand if and why the transformative approaches are
better and generate evidence base to scale out
– Context-specific treatments identified based on the results of social and gender
analysis
Examples:
• In Barotse Flood Plain, Zambia
-African Transformation methodology with randomly selected PAR groups
-Applying for WorldBank Gender innovation Lab funding
• In Bangladesh, where Feed the Future Program is operating
-Feed The Future, with GTA integrated in some communities
- Feed the Future, regular

associated norms in Barotse Flood Plain, Zambia
Fish value chains
•Men fish using nets in deep waters and women using baskets in
shallow waters and when floods recede
•Women mainly engaged in selling fish without any value addition
– Women do not use nets as they are heavy and difficult for them to
handle and, going into deep waters is dangerous.
– ‘If a women fishes with a net, she cannot give birth.’
– ‘Bible stipulates the different roles of men and women and there is
no need for change in gender division of labour.’
– ‘Ladies come from the rib of the man and cannot consider
themselves to be equals.’
– Men and women take up roles based on
knowledge/awareness/training which they received as children
• Girls learn from their mothers and boys from their fathers
26. Cultures and norms are not static!
• Significant changes in norms and acceptance of
women going out fishing into deep waters and at
nights with their husbands
– ‘Women paddling is not a bad omen anymore.’
– ‘A good wife these days is someone who can earn some
money to take care of the family’.
• Men and women in village with multiple NGOs operating
seemed to be more open and accepting of changes in
social norms
• Increasing awareness of importance of education for girls –
most girls go to school now

SOFA through the evidence it provided has had significant influence in catapulting gender back into the center-stage in ag R and D. Research and development programs often assume that access to resources leads to control or that higher income is transformative. It is not always true. It depends on social norms and agency of men and women. Not sure how many in the ag R and D field have seen or read this other report.
Results from the WorldBank study across 20 countries.
I might take out the sub-bullets under the three questions and just talk to the slide..
Taking the example of the Barotse value chain initiative, we would like to illustrate how social norms and beliefs restrict livelihood choices of women. There might be more remunerative livelihood options which they might want to and can pursue, but are constrained by the norms.
I will change this and try to make it more readable – but this is our outcome logic model for various sets of actors for GTA. Just to demonstrate that this intervention operates at multiple scales and we need behavioural change outcomes in more than just communities to get the dev outcomes and impacts we want.
Methodological frameworks and tools for conceptualization, contextualization, design, implementation and evaluation Capacity – developing a cap dev and org change approach Communication – key challenge – both internally and externally – developing a strategy Partnerships – key to all above + for scaling up and out – looking for expertise to work with at global and local levels
