IFPRI PolSem: Crafting the Next Generation of CGIAR Gender Research - 10/30/2019 - DNajjar

Summary: Topic and Speaker: Engaging with constraining norms through gender transformative approaches: Dina Najjar, Gender Scientist, International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) How can agriculture and natural resource management advance gender equality? Asking this question rather than only its inverse — what does gender analysis bring to agriculture and natural resource management? — elevates the objective of gender equality within CGIAR, challenges boundaries in thinking about gender in agriculture, and stimulates new and creative perspectives. Gender researchers from across CGIAR are preparing a landmark publication that synthesizes recent research and sets a forward-looking agenda for gender research in the areas of agriculture and natural resource management. This seminar will share key reflections from the book.
