Also available in:
No results found.The first Country Gender Assessment for Georgia was initiated in 2018, providing an overview of gender dynamics in agriculture and rural development. This comprehensive assessment reviews the progress made since 2018, highlighting critical gaps, new and persistent challenges and progress achieved. Adopting an agrifood systems approach, it examines the impacts of climate change and other shocks and crises on gender equality in Georgia's agrifood systems. The findings indicate notable advancements in the collection and analysis of sex-disaggregated data. However, critical sectoral gaps persist, particularly in addressing the needs of rural and young women. The assessment underscores opportunities for enhancing women’s empowerment in agriculture and rural development by drawing on good practices based on the experiences of FAO Representation in Georgia. The publication concludes with actionable recommendations for FAO and its partners. -

Book (series)National gender profile of agriculture and rural livelihoods – The Philippines 2018
Also available in:
No results found.The Country Gender Assessment (CGA) of the Agriculture and Rural Sector of the Philippines was undertaken in 2017 to primarily inform the gender-sensitive country level planning and programming of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and contribute to the implementation of FAO’s Policy on Gender Equality at country level. The objective of the present CGA is to analyse the agricultural and rural sector of the Philippines from a gender perspective at the macro (policy), meso (institutional) and micro (community and household) level. The CGA aims to identify gender inequalities in access to critical productive resources, assets, services and opportunities. In particular, the assessment identifies priorities and gaps in selected areas of FAO mandate. At the same time, it highlights opportunities for promoting gender equality in agriculture and rural development as well as strengthening rural women’s social and economic empowerment. A number of the recommendations are targeted to transform the cultural and social norms that undervalue women and girls. These include initiatives that support women’s and men’s important role in family health, food security and nutrition (i.e. improved food preparation practices, nutrition education and access to safe drinking water). While taking care not to promote stereotypes, these initiatives can increase rural women’s and men’s access to resources, know-how, including use of information and communication technologies (ICTs), and income generation, especially projects that reduce labour and time burdens in unpaid care, domestic and community work. The Assessment also identifies stakeholders, partners and inter-institutional mechanisms that FAO Philippines can further explore to help bridge gender gaps and promote gender equality in the agriculture and the rural sector.
