Over the previous months the membership of this online community is growing. Apparently the subject of gender in value chains is attracting interest world wide!

Together we form a veritable resource. Why not get to know each other a bit better and at the same time collect relevant resources for our work.

So don't be shy an tell us:

What is your favourite resource that helps you in your work (think of tools, literature, links to experts, ....

To reply, just make use of the comment box below and upload your documents. Alternatively for literature suggestions we prefer the URL link to the website on which the document or article is posted.

If you feel like sharing 'grey literature' you can also send an email to angelica.senders[at]iccoenkerkinactie.nl or ijansen[at]agri-profocus.nl.

Hope to hear from you,

Angelica

Dear Grania, Thanks I will look at this literature, we are particularly interested in material accessible on the internet. We have made a 'unique code' apf_gender, this results in the literature list you can see under 'cybrary' on the NIng. In the beginning I can tag suggested resources in delicious, of course I hope others will do the same later. I do not know whether you are familiar with delicious (social bookmarking). If not look at this link: http://web2share.pbworks.com/social_bookmarking , this short fil is very nice (delicious in plain English). We will remain in contact. Kind regards Angelica
