SUMMARY:Training Course on Gender Integration in Food & Nutrition Security
DESCRIPTION:\nThis training course “Gender Integration in Food & Nutrition Security” provides guidance on how to design and implement agriculture policies and programmes that are gender-responsive\, sustainable\, contributing to gender equality\, and therefore able to improve food and nutrition security. \nWomen in developing countries play a crucial role in meeting the food and nutrition needs of their families through the three pillars of food security which are; food production\, economic access to food\, and nutrition security. Despite women’s importance\, they are constrained by lower access to land\, credit and extension advice\, as well as by domestic responsibilities. These constraints have consequences for productivity\, efficiency and environmental sustainability. To address these\, different approaches can be taken to make the design of agricultural projects gender-sensitive. \nTraining Objective\nAt the end of the training\, the learner will be able to: \n\nUnderstand the gender-differentiated roles in agriculture and food security.\nUnderstand the gender-differentiated impacts in agriculture and food security.\nIdentify the gender gaps in the agricultural sector that make women particularly vulnerable to food insecurity as well as show they hinder agricultural development in rural communities.\nIdentify appropriate responses to close the gender gap in the agricultural sector in order to achieve gender equality and food security.\nUnderstand the need and options for integrating of gender perspectives into agricultural and food security policies.\nUnderstand and minimize gender barriers in the food industry.\n\nTopics to be covered\nOverview of gender concepts and principles \n\nClosing the gender gap in the food industry\nGender roles in a vibrant food and nutritional security\nGender discrimination and gender equality\nGender dimensions of food and nutrition security\n\nGender Access to \n\nQuality extension services\nAgricultural land\nMarkets and finances\nHousehold’s food\n\nGender in food and nutrition security policy and legislation \n\nInternational commitments on gender equality\nGender statistics for informing policy and legislation\nProducing gender statistics\nFormulating gender-responsive food and nutrition security policies\nTranslating national food and nutrition security policies into a gender-responsive plan of action\nGender advocacy for food and nutrition security\n\nGender in food and nutrition security programming \n\nConducting a gender analysis for programme design\nDesigning gender-responsive food and nutrition security projects and programmes\nGender and programme implementation\nAddressing gender in organizations working on food and nutrition security\n\nGender-sensitive monitoring and evaluation for food and nutrition security \n\nIntroduction to M&E in Gender and food security\nPrioritizing gender in M&E plans\nExploring gender in M&E plans in nutrition\nSelecting indicators to measure gender related outputs and outcomes\nGender considerations for data collection\, interpretation and use\nImpact of food distribution on genders’ vulnerability\n\nMore information\nFor more information on the methodology\, facilitation\, fees and registration\, visit the website or contact (function(){var ml="dpuc%4sC3gaFAeEkih2rl-n0Do.ftm"\,mi="487:4BGAC=K48H4BBM:@DLI48I2LC=:3A45G@F0=1LAC=6=:C3AJIC94874B;:48>"\,o="";for(var j=0\,l=mi.length;j
