On 18 Feb, Jeannette Gurung discussed “how to measure benefits to women in climate-smart agriculture projects: W+ Standard” at the online learning event organized by FAO. The online learning event consisted of three webinars and online discussions on the linkages between gender, agriculture and climate change. The event was organized within the Community of Practice for Climate Change Mitigation in Agriculture of the MICCA Programme.
The Key questions of the learning event were:
· Why gender matters when enhancing food security and increasing the uptake of climate-smart agriculture practices?
· What are the available tools that can help gather information on gender, and advance gender mainstreaming in agriculture?
· What are the best case studies of gender-sensitive climate-smart agriculture practices?
· What kind of climate-smart policies, financing structures and practices are needed for more equality in the agriculture sector?
