    Preparing the CFS Voluntary Guidelines on Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment in the Context of Food Security and Nutrition - GCP/GLO/493/MUL 2024

    Despite years of progress and global commitments, gender disparities and discrimination in food security persist around the world, particularly affecting women and girls in vulnerable situations. To address these issues, the Committee on World Food Security (CFS) included the development of a set of Voluntary Guidelines on Gender Equality and Women’s and Girls’ Empowerment in the context of Food Security and Nutrition in its 2020–2023 Multi-Year Programme of Work (MYPoW). The Guidelines, which were prepared under this project, aimed to (i) support CFS Member States, development partners and other stakeholders to advance the rights of women and girls, as well as gender equality and women’s and girls’ empowerment (GEWGE) in their efforts to eradicate hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition; and (ii) to provide guidance to countries as they work to contribute to the achievement of CFS’s vision and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2 (Zero Hunger) and 5 (Gender Equality).

    This technical note presents the theory of change for gender transformative programming for food security, nutrition and sustainable agriculture. It aims to provide the rationale for development actors and practitioners to adopt the theory of change for gender transformative change in interventions contributing to the achievement of SustainableDevelopment Goal 2 – Zero Hunger.The theory of change was produced by the Joint Programme on Gender Transformative Approaches for Food Security and Nutrition (JP GTA) and offers a conceptual framework to assist the United Nations Rome-based Agencies – FAO, IFAD and WFP – and their partners in designing and implementing gender equality work with a transformational and sustainable impact.This technical note comprises two main sections. Section one provides background information on the logic and key assumptions of the theory of change, and general considerations for its use. Section two provides examples of how the theory of change was used in two pilot projects supported by the JP GTA in Ecuador and Malawi. These examples display some of the potential ways in which the theory of change can be used to strengthen the design and implementation of food security, nutrition and sustainable agriculture interventions.
