1. Why a gender focus for agricultural
researchers?
Patti Kristjanson
CCAFS Research Theme Leader – Linking Knowledge with Action
AAAS Annual Meeting: Boston, Feb 14-18 USAID Organized Session on Transforming
Productivity and Incomes of Poor Farm Households in the Developing World
6. Gender Transformative Approaches
• Strengthening groups (women’s, men’s and mixed
groups) through inclusive training and improved
institutional arrangements/rules
• Increasing equitable access to agricultural and
weather information, credit, agricultural inputs
• Inclusive engagement and M&E processes with
local partners
7. Other Linking K with A Strategies
• Inclusive and forward-looking engagement processes
• Innovative communication strategies
• Capacity strengthening targeting women and youths
• Learning approaches
8. Its about the partners…
• NGOs and government agencies that have earned the
trust of local communities
• Sharing research findings through TV, radio, and places
where people (especially women) gather
• Using social media, crowdsourcing
9. Thank
you

Editor's Notes
Ag R4D agenda is changing: CCAFS as an exampleFocus on outcomes/behavioral change leading to enhanced resilience of agricultural systems and livelihoods, and increased adaptive capacity to be able to make changesNo longer just on the ‘what’ (research outputs – papers, people trained,etc), and more on the ‘who’ will help change occur, and ‘how’
Challenge: Closing the gender gap in access to productive resources, technologies, information and marketsCritical to tackling huge global food security challengesWe need to integrate efforts to address the gender gap with complementary actions to address underlying social norms and power relationsThis includes more ‘action research’ and less diagnostic researchAnd seeking new communications-related partners and opportunities
Examples:Gender and social differentiation in building agricultural climate resilience: Designing equitable climate services for farmers – with USAID in West AfricaWorking with women and communities in 15 countries on adaptation and mitigation options - ‘Farms of the Future’ (photo:participatory video in Burkina)
Examples:Climate smart agriculture project with carbon payments to smallholders with CARE Int’l in East AfricaMonitoring, reporting and verification requirements of such projects are driving the research agenda – quantifying GHG emissions in complex landscapes, inst’l arrangements, communicating CC to smallholders
Strengthening groups (women’s, men’s and mixed groups) through inclusive trainings and rules such as rotational leadershipsIncreasing equitable access to information, credit, agricultural inputs through community-managed savings and loans groups, marketing cooperatives, producer associations, water-user groups, etc.Inclusive engagement and M&E processes with local partners that ensure both men and women participate, have a voice, and equally benefit from interventions
Inclusive engagement processes: e.g. future scenarios, climate analogues, improved seasonal forecasts (e.g. with women’s groups, networks), cross-site/project learning visits/workshopsInnovative communication strategies: e.g. communication experts involved throughout, research on CC communication, use of radio, soaps/reality shows, ICT’sCapacity strengthening targeting women and youths: e.g. resource and network mapping, training of trainers in gender-CC research in CCAFS regions, gender-CC research calls, training female and youth community resource personsLearning approaches that encourage innovating and experimenting
And being creative and looking for new opportunities that the spread of TV’s, radios, and increasingly computers and access to the internet through info kiosks, etcExample: Bioversity is using crowdsourcing approaches to learn more about people’s preferred varietal traits, and how they vary across different groups (men vs. women; older versus younger, etc)
