The Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) team of the International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas (ICARDA) was delighted to be chosen as a finalist for the CGIAR Inclusive Team Award – one of CGIAR’s first-ever Inclusive Workplace Awards, which recognize efforts to advance gender equity and support inclusivity in the workplace.
All members of the MEL team attended a virtual awards ceremony in September, where more than 200 staff came together to celebrate award winners in three categories: Inclusive Role Model Award, Inclusive Leader Award, and Inclusive Team Award.
The MEL team was chosen as one of three finalists out of 150 nominations for the Inclusive Team Award and was rewarded for its constant work to promote gender equality and the empowerment of young professionals
