On April 23, a meeting was held on gender and SFED. The objective of the meeting was to discuss the gender plans of the SFED department.
We started with a presentation on the Agri-profocus (APF) gender learning network, in which ICCO plays an active role. This network started about a year ago with the aim to jointly:
1. develop a conceptual framework for gender and value chains;
2. make tools and instruments accessible;
3. develop ways to monitor and evaluate our successes.
A very informative learning history was made about the experiences of the network druing the first year. The document is downloadable from the blog on the Ning (website) of the gender network: http://genderinvaluechains.ning.com/ I herewith would like to recommend this ning. Don't forget to click on the icon for the 'tools wiki'.
Furthermore we discussed the plans to describe in-depth a variety of value chains from a gender perspective. Together we generated a number of ideas, in the three continents, which will be worked out jointly with Margreet Mook, gender specialist of ICCO.
