Agriculture remains the backbone of rural livelihoods and a critical driver for achieving sustainable development goals. However, persistent gender disparities—rooted in social norms and unequal access to resources—continue to limit the sector’s full potential and hinder inclusive growth. Integrating gender perspectives into agricultural and rural development initiatives is essential for reducing food insecurity, alleviating rural poverty, and empowering communities.
This comprehensive Gender Mainstreaming in Agriculture and Rural Development Seminar is designed to equip participants with the knowledge and practical tools to address gender-based challenges and promote gender equality in agriculture. Through a mix of interactive sessions, real-world case studies, and group exercises, participants will learn how to design, implement, and monitor gender-responsive agricultural projects and rural development programmes that truly make a difference.
