Résumé :
Climatic hazards are common in Bangladesh on delta and riverine island communities, which are large sandbars formed in riverbeds due to silt and alluvium deposition. Specifically, these hazards are caused by the dynamic erosion and accretion of riverbanks. The natural disaster caused by the subsequent sediment buildup on the riverbed and river bank erosion poses a serious threat to the way of life for the residents of Char, particularly the women, by causing damage to or destruction of houses, crops, and family income. The Char Livelihood Program (CLP) attempted to strengthen women's resilience and sense of empowerment while simultaneously improving their livelihoods, nutrition, access to clean water, sanitation, and hygiene habits of char women. This study was mainly undertaken to investigate the extent of changes in the livelihood status of char women due to the involvement in Char Livelihood Program (CLP), explore the factors that may influence the livelihood changes of the char women due to involvement in the CLP. Besides, the problems faced by the char women while working in CLP were also investigated. Data were collected from four villages of Islampur Upazila (sub-district) under Jamalpur district purposively and analyzed using Multiple Linear Regression Models. The goal was to identify the variables that affect the char women's changes in their livelihood. Findings indicated that involvement in char livelihood program had significant influence on the livelihood of char women. The main factor included years of schooling, family size and knowledge of CLP. Collectively, the factors explained 32.3% variation in the livelihood changes of char women. The most influential challenges, from highest to lowest, included unavailability of transport and poor communication status, and lack of commitment of the service provider. Therefore, in order to overcome these obstacles, efforts must be made to ensure seasonal transportation system and enhance road communication infrastructure to enable char women to move around freely in order to carry agricultural products and to connect with relevant stakeholders for better farming and income operations.

Résumé :
This paper examines the perceived impact of microfinance on livelihood improvement in Kaski district of Nepal. The study is based on a primary survey limited to five MFIs working in rural parts of Kaski district. The impact of microfinance services on people's livelihoods was examined using a descriptive and explanatory research including paired sample t-test, and Wilcoxon signed-rank test The livelihood status of the clients has been measured in terms of economic (microbusiness creation, income level, saving habits, productive investment, consumption, and capital expenditures) and social condition (educational status, health status, women empowerment, and social networking) of the clients after microfinance intervention. The researcher randomly selected 150 clients involved in microfinance institutions for the last three or more years. Microfinance significantly affects the livelihood and raises standards of living. The study finds a significant impact of microfinance on the livelihood improvement of poor and marginalized people. Microfinance interventions have significantly improved clients' economic condition, including microbusiness creation, income level, saving habits, productive investment, consumption, and capital expenditures. The social conditions, particularly educational status, health status, women empowerment, and social networking of clients, have significantly improved. Microfinance can be useful for fostering economic growth and enhancing the lives of low-income people and communities, even though its efficacy is disputed. The regulatory authority should develop sound financial and social outreach efficiencies of microfinance institutions to ensure both the welfare of clients and the sustainability of micro institutions.

This research discusses the livelihood status of career women in view of Islamic law and it’s urgency in Indonesia, the epistemology of tanqih al-manat in legal reasoning, and how the application of tanqih al-manat in obligation of career woman livelihood. This research uses a qualitative approach in explaining, describing and analyzing the data and find out the results of the research. The data collection technique used is a literature study. The results of this research identify that being a career woman has become an urgent need in Indonesia, because if only men have careers it will cause an imbalance between the average income and a decent standard of living. The women have the right to work like men as long as the work requires it or she herself needs the work and the work is carried out with respect and obey the religious principles and goals. Tanqih al-manat is a method of filtering the right ‘illat from various possible properties. Through the filtering process of ‘illat, it was found that the proper ‘illat from the texts of the obligation to support livelihood is the husband's control and detention in the house so that she is unable to live independently. Therefore, this research concludes that career women do not have to be supported in livelihood by their husbands, because they are no longer confined to their homes and they are able to live independently.

Résumé :
This study examined the livelihood information endowment as a correlate of material quality of life among rural women in Southwest Nigeria. A multistage sampling procedure was used to select 384 respondents using an interview schedule. Data collected on socioeconomic characteristics, livelihood information endowment (livelihood information sought and sources of information); constraints to livelihood information endowment and material quality of life were analysed with percentages, mean, standard deviation, the Pearson Product Moment Correlation and Chi-square at α0.05. The results showed that most of the respondents were cooperative society members (51.6%) with a mean year of former education being 8.0±4.62 years. The most accessible information sources were mobile phones (3.73±0.90) and husband (3.72±0.82) with livelihood information endowment being high at 55.7%. However, respondents’ prominent constraints to livelihood information endowment were network problem (0.40) and poor rural infrastructure (0.39). The respondents’ material quality of life status was low 52.1%, as most did not possess landed properties (58.1%). A significant relationship existed between respondents’ material quality of life and livelihood information endowment (r=0.134), social group belonged (r=0.153) and constraint to livelihood information endowment (r=-0.017). Constraints to livelihood information endowment inform the respondents’ Material Quality of Life status. Network providers should offer efficient services.

Résumé :
Since the 2000s, agricultural land acquisition (ALA) for urbanization and industrialization has been quickly implemented in Vietnam, which has led to a huge socioeconomic transformation in rural areas. This paper applies the sustainable livelihoods framework to analyze how ALA has impacted the socioeconomic status (SES) of rural women whose agricultural land was acquired. To get primary data, we surveyed 150 affected households, conducted three group discussions and interviewed nine key informants. The research findings reveal that ALA, when applied toward urbanization, has significantly improved the occupational status of rural women by creating non-farm job opportunities that have improved their income, socioeconomic knowledge and working skills. While their SES has been noticeably enhanced, these positive impacts are still limited in cases where ALA is applied toward industrial and energy development, since these purposes do not create many new jobs. Moreover, the unclear responsibility of stakeholders and inadequate livelihood rehabilitation programs of ALA projects have obstructed the opportunities of rural women. To improve the SES of rural women, we recommend that ALA policy initiate a flexible livelihoods support plan based on the purpose of ALA and the concrete responsibilities of stakeholders and investors.

The issue of women's access to land is a developmental issue. From a fundamental research view point, this study aims to explore the circumstances in which women access land in South Africa. The study examines the inequalities that may arise in the context of land access, land acquisition; land use, activities taking place on land and closely related issues focusing specifically on women in general, and women headed households in particular. The study is based on demographic characteristics such as age, gender, marital status, occupational groups, education, province of residence and ethnic groups. Bringing together the demographic variables and land related variables, the study captures the structural changes between 2004 and 2007. Using 2004 and 2007 GHS secondary data requested from Statistics South Africa, cross tabulation and bivariate statistical analysis by means of SPSS software was performed. The results obtained indicate that the inequality against women's access to land still persists. Some women have access to land for agricultural purpose but few own it. The findings suggest that a number of factors including age, place of residence, marital status, ethnic group, literacy, educational level, of women are associated with the ability of women to access and acquire land. The sustainable livelihood framework is a theory that guided this study. Diversification is commonly used to prevent time of risks and shocks. In general, the study shows that the proportion of women who had access to land was 16% in 2004. This figure dropped to 14% in 2007.

Résumé :
Ziele: In Entwicklungsländern wie Bangladesch ist das Privateinkommen für Landfrauen essentieller Bestandteil eines verbesserten Haushaltseinkommens. Hauptzweck der vorliegenden Arbeit ist die Verbesserung der Existenzgrundlage von Frauen in ländlichen Gebieten durch diverse einkommensgenerierende Aktivitäten (IGAs). Es wurde der Versuch unternommen, ihre derzeitige Situation kennen zu lernen, ihre derzeitigen Einkommensstrategien zu beurteilen, insbesondere die Wirkung von Aktivitäten der Nichtregierungsorganisationen abzuschätzen, das Haushaltseinkommen der Frauen und Einflussfaktoren darauf zu untersuchen ebenso wie Faktoren, die eine Beteiligung der Frauen an den IGA’s einschränken. Methodischer Ansatz: In der vorliegenden Studie wurden strukturierte und semi-strukturierte persönliche Interviews sowie ausgewählte Methoden des Participatory Pural Appraisal für die Datensammlung verwendet. Ergebnisse: Die Mehrheit der befragten Landfrauen gehört in die Klasse eines geringen bis mittleren Livelihood Status. Neben den ausgewählten unabhängigen Variablen, wurden weitere sieben Variablen mit signifikantem positiven Einfluss auf das Haushaltseinkommen identifiziert. Die Ergebnisse bezüglich der Einkommensstrategien der befragten Frauen zeigt, dass diese zwar in verschiedenen Einkommensaktivitäten involviert sind, jedoch ihr persönliches jährliches Einkommen der verschiedenen IGAs unerheblich ist. Die Wirkungsanalyse von IGAs auf das Einkommen der Frauen zeigt, dass 36% der Frauen ein höheres Einkommen von IGAs während der letzten drei Jahre zu verzeichnen haben (2006-2008). Der Zugang zu Mikrokrediten, Betriebsmittelversorgung, Markteinrichtungen, bessere Ziegenrassen und verbesserte Behandlung von Tieren führen zu einer Verbesserung des Einkommens. Die Constraint Analyse zeigt, dass insgesamt 74% der Landfrauen mittlere Behinderungen zur Teilnahme an IGAs angeben. Die Frauen haben dabei 17 Hinderungsgründe identifiziert.
Objective: In developing countries like Bangladesh, personal income of rural women is an essential precondition to enhancing household income, which improves the entitlement on basic necessities. The main purpose of this research project is to improve livelihood of rural women through involving them in different IGAs. An attempt has been made to know the present livelihood situation of rural women, to assess their income strategies, to examine the impact of NGO activity on women characteristics, to investigate household income of rural women and factors influencing it and to find out the existing constraints on participation in IGAs. Methodological approach: In this study, structured and semi-structured interview schedules as well as several tools of the participatory rural appraisal were used to obtain necessary information. Results and conclusion: The majority of the studied rural women have a low to middle level of livelihood status. Among the selected independent variables, seven variables have a significant positive influence on household income. The findings from income strategies of studied women indicated that they are involved in various income activities for earning but their personal annual income from various IGAs is not handsome. The impact analysis of IGAs on personal income of women shows that overall 36% women have increased income from IGAs during the last three years (2006-2008). Access to micro-credit, inputs, market facilities, supply of improve breeds of goat, and improved treatment facilities of livestock all lead to increased income. The constraints index (CI) analysis shows that overall 74% of the rural women faced medium constraints to participate in IGAs. Rural women identified a total of seventeen root causes hindering their participate in IGAs.

Magister Artium (Development Studies) - MA(DVS)
The informal economy has continued to increase in developing countries, giving jobs and income to marginalised groups, the majority being women. The rise of the informal sector is perpetuated by exclusionary social policies and the continued increase in unemployment. In Botswana, street food vending, the most visible form of the informal sector trading, has evolved to be a survivalist activity that women populate. Increasing poverty levels, gender inequalities, and high unemployment rates have resulted in poor urban women being vulnerable to the stresses and shocks caused by these factors. Street food vending is therefore pursued by women to mitigate their vulnerability. Additionally, street food vending allows for more flexible working hours, thus accommodating women’s community, household, and productive roles. Despite women’s substantial contribution to Botswana’s informal economy, the government has not done much to support them.

Résumé :
The research for this thesis was conducted in village of Samene, Mali from 2006-2008 where I served as a Peace Corps volunteer. In Samene I became interested in understanding the livelihood experience of men and women and the critical factors that led to positive livelihood outcomes for individuals. The formal research question addressed in this thesis is how assets and access (social rules and norms) influence livelihood diversification options for men and women.

The research is based on a mixed method design consisting of extensive individual and household surveying, focus groups, interviews, and participant observation. The Livelihood Approach is utilized to describe the assets, access restrictions and diversification strategies that comprise the livelihoods for men and women in Samene. The findings shows that while diversification activities are important to both men and women, women are unable to access the more attractive high return activities that are dominated by men. Differences in the livelihood experiences between and within gendered groups are explained by looking at an individualâ s relationship to the critical assets, which are identified as the keys to accessing activities that lead to greater livelihood security.

Based on the research findings a new livelihood framework is advanced to show the different pathways men and women take to sustain and improve their livelihoods. This framework incorporates the concepts and processes of social differentiation, social exclusion, historical motion, power and access that were found to be critical in explaining an individualâ s livelihood experience in Samene.

Résumé :
This study examined the status of women in Southwestern Nigeria from a legal perspective. It scrutinized the three legal infrastructures in the Nigerian legal system. The study is based on the premise that the huge disparity in the socio-economic development of the women in South-western Nigeria is a consequence of inadequate legal protection. Four independent variables were considered, and three intervening variables were identified. Workshops, interviews and surveys were conducted. A document analysis approach was used to examine the three legal infrastructures in the Nigerian legal system—the Common Law also known as the English Law, the Statutory Laws which are a culmination of ordinances, bills, and decrees and the Customary laws which evolved through tradition. The study found that constitutional and statutory laws do indeed provide substantial protection for women; however, some Statutory laws exclude women married under the customary laws. The conclusions drawn from this finding is that factors including but not limited to the inadequacy of legal protection, are key elements to which the socio-economic and political backwardness of women may be attributed. The factors include a lack of gender specific legislation to emancipate women from the shackles of patriarchy; ignorance and lack of awareness of existing protection; biased customary laws which are pro-male and which inhibit the socio-economic and political advancement of women and customs which reinforce gender inequality.

Texte intégral
Résumé :
This thesis seeks to understand and analyze the livelihood strategies of urban women traders at Magaba in Harare (Zimbabwe) in the context of the contemporary economic and political crisis. The crisis emerged in the 1990s with the introduction of a structural adjustment programme and deepened further with the fast track land reform programme initiated by the Zimbabwean government in the year 2000. The crisis has involved a down-sizing of the Zimbabwean economy and a massive rise in the rate of unemployment in the formal economy. Consequently urban life became increasingly unbearable for poor blacks and informal economic activities blossomed and started to make a significant contribution to household income and livelihoods. The role of women in the informal economy was particularly pronounced. Theoretically, the thesis is underpinned by the sustainable livelihoods framework. In examining the vulnerability context of the Magaba women traders and the institutional interventions which complicate the lives and livelihoods of these traders, I identify and unpack their diverse livelihood activities and strategies and the resources (or assets) they deploy in constructing urban livelihoods. Though their livelihood portfolios complement any earnings from formal employment by household members and though they contribute to their household’s sustenance, there are a number of daily challenges which they face in their trading activities and which they seek to counteract through a range of often ingenious coping mechanisms. The thesis is important for a number of reasons. It fills an important empirical gap in the study of Magaba market specifically, it brings to the fore the gendered character of the informal trading activities in urban Zimbabwe, and it deploys the livelihoods framework in a manner which is sensitive to both structure and agency.

Résumé :
Ottoman gold-brocaded silk velvet (çatma) cushion covers from the seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Ottoman Empire, about 500 of which survive, are often treated as an undifferentiated aggregate because of their apparent uniformity of structure, materials, dimensions, format and motifs. However, close technical analysis of the çatma cushions reveals myriad differences. The differences-between objects that fall into the range of acceptable quality and those that do not-reveal nuances that are not reflected in the documents but that are nonetheless critical to understanding the large-scale production of luxury goods in the pre-industrial period. This dissertation investigates the range of like and unalike cushion covers from a social and economic perspective, focusing on the interaction between the production and consumption of the textiles. The first chapter contextualises the object's distinctive format, tracing its origins from the medieval Red Sea trade to the late sixteenth-century Ottoman Empire. The second shows how the small differences in material and structure indicate economisation on the part of the weavers, as they sought to husband their resources and perhaps to reach a larger number of consumers by producing a diversity of goods at different prices and qualities. The third chapter uses formal and technical analysis to periodise the objects. Records from the kadi courts in Bursa, the main centre for çatma production, illustrate how the weavers established, violated, and re-established standards for quality; the fourth chapter considers the standards in light of extant objects and establishes the frequency with which they were transgressed. The fifth chapter focuses on the consumers of the çatma cushions, using probate to understand how Ottoman men and women in the city of Edirne purchased, accumulated and displayed çatma cushions, other luxury textiles and signifying goods. The last chapter contextualises this consumption, using contemporary commentators to discuss ideas of luxury, decorum and signification among Ottoman subjects; it also looks at the imitations of the çatma cushions and speculates that the enthusiasm for the type may have helped drive production. The dissertation draws on diverse sources, from Ottoman manuscript painting to probate to hundreds of extant objects; supporting material is found in a series of figures, a catalogue and three appendices. Above all, this work rehabilitates objects which are often neglected and uses a new paradigm to suggest the importance, and relevance, of non-imperial production for the study of Islamic Art.

Résumé :
Abstract This book applies a gender lens to examine the implications of climate change for livelihoods in vulnerable states. The goals are to enhance awareness of climate change as a gender issue, and to highlight the importance of gender in identifying livelihood vulnerabilities and in designing more robust climate adaptation measures, especially in climate-sensitive industries such as agriculture. The contributions in this book examine how the consequences of climate change affect women and men in different ways, and address the implications of climate change for women's livelihoods and resource access. The book is organized into two main sections. The first section (Chapters 2-8) examines disparities in the vulnerability of women's and men's livelihoods to climate change. The chapters in this section address issues such as gender inequalities in the household distribution of labour; differential access to agricultural livelihood inputs and assets; gender-based threats to personal safety and security; and gendered vulnerability to and experiences with climate disasters, food insecurity, and infrastructure development. The second section (chapters 9-16) takes a gender-based view of various climate adaptation initiatives in areas that rely on agriculture for subsistence and production. The contributions in this section address gender-inclusive participation in climate policy planning and decision making, the role of gender in livelihood adaptation measures, and any successes, failures, or opportunities for improvement that emerge from these efforts.

AbstractThis chapter shifts scale from Chap. 10.1007/978-3-030-79591-7_2 to focus on the local context and analyse the everyday sets of social relationships that frame the lives of those engaged in fishing livelihoods. The broad structural forces of migration, technology and markets along with the wider economy all intersect with local sets of social structures to shape the conditions in which fishing livelihoods operate. Here we present two examples of how different forms of social differentiation interact with fishing livelihoods. In the Western Philippines, class and status intersect with cultural values to generate power relations and hierarchies in different roles associated with fishing livelihoods. In Pacific Island countries, gender norms structure the different types of fishing activities in which men and women are involved.

Résumé :
AbstractGroundnut productions have been declining in Mali in spite of several new improved varieties being released, the key problem being inadequacy of the seed supply system. To solve this problem, Kolokani MSP was established in 2012 and reorganized with support from TL III in 2015 to include more stakeholders in the groundnut value chain—farmers particularly women, farmer associations, cooperative societies, seed producers, agro-dealers, grain traders, processors, research and extension. Four new varieties Fleur11, ICGV 86124, ICGV 86015, and ICGV 86024 were supplied to the platform for FPVS and among them two, Fleur 11 and ICGV 86124 were preferred for their high yields and large grain size under farmer conditions. Through training of trainers, the different members of the platform reached 1246 farmers among them 928 women with improved groundnut seed production, aflatoxin management, seed business plans, and small-scale mechanization. A total 47 FPVS, 50 Demonstrations, and three multi-locational variety trials were conducted annually from 2016 to 2018. Kolokani platform have played an important role in groundnut value chain by producing and marketing 85 tons groundnut certified seed of these varieties annually for farmers. This is expected to stop the national productivity decline while improving platform members’ livelihoods and nutrition status.

Résumé :
The Skills in Demand Project is an initiative of Commonwealth of Learning (COL) with Auchi Polytechnic, Auchi partnering with the Auchi Tailors Union. It is a formal curriculum for training fashion designers under the National Skills Qualification (NSQ) Framework using apprentices under different master-craft persons to upgrade and standardize their training, evaluate their competence and certify them while still under the master-craft persons. The knowledge component of the curriculum will be delivered by Auchi Polytechnic Team members headed by the Project Manager using Open and Distance Learning (ODL) method with AptusPi devices provided by Commonwealth of Learning which is pre-loaded with Moodlebox LMS. The practical component will be delivered in the workplace by master-craft persons, who would be given prior training on competency-based learning and use of formal curriculum. The apprentices would be assessed internally and externally and issued NSQ Level 2 Certificates if competent by National Business and Technical Examinations Board (NABTEB). This initiative is necessitated by the rising demand for knowledge, skilled and competent workforce in the Nigeria fashion and garment industry especially among the women and girls to deliver quality designs for fashion apparel, research fashion trends and similar design, create prototypes of design piece, collaborate with fabric manufacturers for materials and work with other designers and creators to build designs. The project is co-funded by Commonwealth of learning to ensure girls and women are given better considerations and improve their employability, find decent employment and startup businesses in the nearest future as it concerns women. The benefits of this project will be in four-fold namely: learners will be acquiring new skills; acquainted with trainers who are specialist in various skills that might attract their interest to learn; increase livelihood and remote access to the training. The Auchi Polytechnic will improve on its standards and create a platform for its skills to be evaluated; the Internal Generation of Revenue (IGR) of the institution will also increase, then improve the institutional (production, achievements, women presence etc) ranking. The master-craft person (i.e. the project partners) will be more competent as they will be more exposed to the new skills and technology and the use of competency-based assessment. Lastly, the Commonwealth of Learning objectives of skills upscale and poverty reduction from partner countries would be achieved.

Résumé :
In 1997, the Minister of Education in Zambia then, Dr. S. Siyamujaye announced that schoolgirls who become pregnant would no longer be expelled. The girls who had been expelled in that year were allowed to return to school. The directive showed serious commitment towards the education of girls. Hence, the Re-Entry Policy mandates schools to allow girls who fall pregnant or left school due to early marriages back into school system (MOE,1997). // Further, in the pursuit to educate girls, the Government of the Republic of Zambia is working with cooperating partners to eradicate the vices and borrowed funds from World Bank in 2016 to support the ‘Girls' Education and Women's Empowerment and Livelihood. Through ‘Keeping Girls in School (KGS) initiative’ the government has been providing bursaries to girls whose parents/guardians were identified to be vulnerable and who were beneficiaries of the Social Cash Transfer Programme. // The project objective is to support the Government of Zambia to increase access to livelihood support for women and access to secondary education for underprivileged adolescent girls in extremely poor households in selected districts, and Petauke is among the benefiting districts in Zambia. // Despite all these efforts to educate the girl-child, mitigate teenage pregnancies and child marriages, the ministry has continued receiving reports of dropouts due to covid-19, high poverty levels, tradition and culture, teenage pregnancies and early marriages. // The findings revealed that the KGS initiative has positively impacted on girls’ education as Memory Lungu, a learner at Petauke Boarding Secondary School states, “The KGS initiative is good. This is because some of us, our parents cannot manage to pay for us in school. The Government is helping us through KGS and we are grateful” (MOGE Magazine 2021). // The investigation involved 32 out of 53 benefiting schools; sampled and interviewed 100 out of 2,767 beneficiaries. The researcher used mixed research methods. Qualitative and quantitative data were collected using the automated google form, one-on-one phone call interviews and also analysed some data using Microsoft excel. // Therefore, in order to keep pregnant dropouts and out-of-school girls in the education process, government should consider investing in open schooling as it provides access to distance and online methods which can support self-directed learning of Girls anytime and anywhere while on maternity leave or out-of-school.

Texte intégral
Résumé :
Tap and Reposition Youth (TRY) was a four-year initiative undertaken by the Population Council and K-Rep Development Agency to reduce adolescents’ vulnerabilities to adverse social and reproductive health outcomes by improving livelihoods options. The project targeted out-of-school adolescent girls and young women aged 16–22 residing in low-income and slum areas of Nairobi. TRY used a modified group-based micro-finance model to extend integrated savings, credit, business support, and mentoring to out-of-school adolescents and young women. A longitudinal study of participants was conducted with a matched comparison group identified through cross-sectional community-based studies, undertaken at baseline and endline to enable an assessment of changes associated with the project. This report states that 326 participants and their controls were interviewed at baseline and 222 pairs were interviewed at endline. The results suggest that rigorous micro-finance models may be appropriate for a subset of girls, especially those who are older and less vulnerable. The impact on noneconomic indicators is less clear. Additional experimentation and adaptation is required to develop livelihoods models that acknowledge and respond to the particular situation of adolescent girls.

Texte intégral
Résumé :
Sunflower commercialisation in Singida Region, Tanzania has been successful. The successes include increased oilseed production, expanding processing capacity and declining rural poverty. Policies and efforts by development agents to promote sunflower commercialisation have increased the number of actors and service providers. Accumulation from sunflower and other enterprises, including livestock, have not only improved livelihoods, but also contributed to household economic diversity. This paper examines the interactions between activities involved in sunflower production and other livelihood strategies. For example, the paper examines local dynamics in policy and business contexts that have shaped livelihood options available and people’s choices of which option they undertake, and the corresponding outcomes, and reasons for such commercialisation trajectories. The study aims to inform local, regional, and national strategies, to pursue more inclusive and sustainable agriculture development, and widen options and pathways for men and women in Mkalama and Iramba districts of Singida Region.

Texte intégral
Résumé :
Gendered Enterprise and Markets (GEM) is Oxfam GB’s approach to market systems development. The GEM approach facilitates change in market systems and social norms, with the aim of ensuring more sustainable livelihood opportunities for marginalized women and men. The GEM DFID AidMatch Programme (June 2014–February 2018) worked within the soya, milk and vegetable value chains targeting women smallholder farmers in areas of poverty. The programme aimed to benefit 63,600 people (10,600 smallholder households) living in Zambia, Tajikistan and Bangladesh through increases in household income, women having greater influence over key livelihood decisions within their households and communities, and engaging in livelihoods more resilient to shocks, such as natural disasters and market volatility. This evaluation was designed to investigate if and how the GEM programme contributed to its intended outcomes – not only in the lives of individual women smallholder farmers targeted by the programme but also in terms of changes in their communities and the larger market system. It also sought to capture any potential unintended outcomes of the programme. This summary report outlines the key findings from the three individual country evaluations in Bangladesh, Tajikistan and Zambia - for which the full reports are also available.
