Training on Gender-Responsive Research Design and Implementation Sample Clauses

Training on Gender-Responsive Research Design and Implementation. Feedback from the participants in PY1 indicated that gender-responsive and socially inclusive research are relatively new topics to many of GRAIN’s stakeholders (internal and external). Feedback from last year’s workshops outlined the additional effort required in this area, with some researchers being resistant to the concept, or misunderstanding what is gender-responsive research, and possessing a more simplified view of the definition of women’s empowerment programs. In PY2, this activity will require intentional sensitization with GRAIN stakeholders, to include program staff, ARIA and MAIL partners, subcontractors, and peer organizations. The International Women’s Day events GRAIN will host or co-host this year with MAIL and ARIA will emphasize defining and understanding the importance of gender-responsiveness in research and extension design and implementation. This theme will be introduced at the inaugural Women in Agriculture International Speaker Series presentation in March. This event will connect GRAIN mentees and other female project beneficiaries to women from around the world who are leading research, extension, production, and innovation in various value chains. Speakers will be linked via webinar to participants gathered at GRAIN program offices where required logistical support is available. For the inaugural event, XXXXX has invited [redacted] as its inaugural guest speaker. As a leading advocate for women in agriculture and girls in science and technology, building on the legacy of her late grandfather [redacted], [redacted] would participate via webinar at the GRAIN sponsored event coinciding with International Women’s Day in March.

Training on Gender-Responsive Research Design and Implementation. ‌ XXXXX joined the world in celebrating International Women’s Day with workshops held in Balkh, Kabul, and Nangarhar Provinces. The program highlighted women’s contributions to agricultural innovation in Afghanistan and around the world, with breakout sessions for participants to propose solutions to key constraints facing women in careers related to agricultural research, extension, and innovation. Key constraints included security issues for female researchers, perception that gender equality is not always respected, lack of programming/plans to increase women’s capacity and skills, lack of active participation by women in decision-making, and family or social/cultural constraints and restrictions. Possible solutions that emerged included provision of transportation support/services for female researchers to travel to the research farms so that they feel secure and safe; consideration for gender equality during recruitment; creation of educational programs to support female capacity building and growth; increase awareness of the need to solicit female opinions when decisions are being made; implementation of internal or media campaigns that highlight female equality and xxxxxx a culture of mutual respect; set hiring targets for female employees; and highlighting female contributions to agriculture. In total, 123 participants joined the events (82% women). Kabul hosted 45 guests (45 women) on 10 March; Nangarhar 46 (26 women) on 09 March, and Balkh 32 (30 women) on 08 March. The event could not be hosted in Herat Province due to COVID-19 concerns and GIRoA limitations on public gatherings during this time.
