Closing the gender gap in farming under climate change: New knowledge for renewed action

The vision for this high-level event is to share cutting-edge knowledge and evidence on closing the gender gap in farming under climate change, and to convene thinkers and doers in a forum to inspire renewed action.

Specific objectives include:

# Share key research results related to gender, climate change, agriculture and food security.
# Discuss how such results are being used or could be used to reduce gender inequalities including their implications for policy and programs.
# Identify key gaps in the research that still need to be addressed to achieve optimal gender inclusion.
# Identify appropriate frameworks and methods for collecting and analyzing data around the topics of gender and climate change.
# Networking for building potential partnership and/or strengthening existing partnerships.

The format of the event will include several research presentations in the morning and a high-level panel discussion in the afternoon. The high-level panel discussion will be webcast live – pre register using the form to the right.
