Typologies of change : gender integration in agriculture & food security research

Abstract

This synthesis of gender integration in the Canadian International Food Security Research Fund (CIFSRF) projects categorizes the different strategies used to address and integrate gender into development programming, and relates these strategies to gender outcomes of the projects. It draws from the eighteen agriculture and food security projects of CIFSRF Phase 2. It describes the research context of gender in agricultural research for development (AR4D); the research design, including the analytical framework of the synthesis; main findings; and recommendations. It includes a table of “Facilitating and constraining factors for gender integration in CIFSRF projects.”
