Breaking Barriers: Integrating Gender and Nutrition Into Extension Services

Information: 

Extension professionals are fully committed to improving rural livelihoods and strengthening communities, but there is still a great need across the board to better integrate gender and nutrition into their services. Integrated development projects have become the norm, but the fact still remains that simple, evidence-based, ready-to-use materials are extremely difficult to access. 

Join our next Ag Sector Council event, where the Integrating Gender and Nutrition within Agricultural Extension Services (INGENAES) project is addressing this challenge and presenting concrete approaches that will enable participants to:

• Identify gaps in existing services and develop ways to better integrate gender and nutrition 
• Identify how more strategic work in these areas will cause greater impact
• Propose strategies to improve delivery of quality services
• Develop mutually-beneficial partnerships
• Enhance existing gender equity and improved nutrition contributions 

Experts will engage participants in the new Institutional Review and Planning Framework and training-of-trainers activities. In addition, participants will have the opportunity to share their experience with institutional capacity development and how they’ve been able to motivate change related to gender and nutrition.
