Book (stand-alone)Technical bookGender transformative approaches for food security, improved nutrition and sustainable agriculture - A compendium of fifteen good practices 2020The Compendium is a product of the Joint Programme on Gender Transformative Approaches for Food Security and Nutrition implemented by FAO, IFAD and WFP and funded by the European Union. The compendium of 15 good practices of gender transformative approaches (GTAs) includes the individual templates of the 15 good practices, provides a synthesis of the main features of the 15 GTAs presenting the core characteristics of 15 GTAs and describing the implementation arrangements, implementation cycle, the potential results of GTAs and their key success factors and challenges. It also includes ideas as to how GTAs could be taken to scale. The purpose of the Compendium is fourfold: (i) to take stock and draw lessons from experiences from existing practices of GTAs; (ii) to be a resource for agencies already working with GTAs to identify opportunities for strengthening their GTA work or to link up with complementary interventions; (iii) to provide guidance on how to apply GTAs in any organization or institution working for enhanced food security, nutrition and sustainable agriculture; and (iv) to raise awareness of and advocate for GTAs by showcasing examples of good practices or successful approaches that contribute to positive gender-related and non-gender-related changes towards food security, improved nutrition and sustainable agriculture and rural development.

BookletTechnical briefTheory of change for gender transformative programming for food security, nutrition and sustainable agriculture
Technical note
2024This 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.
