Research activities: Encouraging inclusive and responsive governance

Inclusive governance and policies can promote adaptation to climate change and the resilience of women in the agrifood system. Working initially in India, Malawi and Nigeria, this area of work is about identifying, testing and scaling social innovations and organizational strategies to stimulate the effective voice and agency of women in climate-related agrifood system governance at community level and in public and private sector policies that increase women’s resilience to climate change.
