Action – Learning Process on Gender in Value Chains: overview and invitation

[Roel Snelder]

Based on the outcomes of the Agri-ProFocus learning trajectory on Gender in Value Chains over 2008 we have started applying some of our lessons learned in practice. The picture captures our approach

Since March 2009 a growing community of Agri-ProFocus members including ICCO, KIT, HIVOS, Oxfam Novib, Cordaid, SNV, Solidaridad, CIDIN, Both Ends, WUR and the University of Twente have joined our action-learning initiative. Each organisation has selected one or more cases to experiment with together with their Southern partners.

Each case is working with an action-learning plan based on a predeveloped Guideline. You can find an overview of active cases here.

We are now inviting other organisations to participate in this process. Requirements are that you have a specific case and learning question(s),. If you are interested please reply to this item, or mail Roel Snelder.
