Gender Sensitive Value Chain development
• Aims at contributing to women’s empowerment and gender equality
• For this we need to know – what are the gender inequalities in the value
chain– What are their causes – What are the Gender Based Constraints: what
prevents this chain to work for women– What are opportunities to change this
• The ICRW tool will be a great help in this!
Take phasing into account• Different objectives and thus research
questions• In the different phases of the intervention
value chain development• These objectives will be each time more
specific: 1. Selection of Value chains
2. Analysis of value chains
3. Definining upgrading strategies/ interventions
4. Monitoring, evaluation and learning
A practitioners perspective

Analysis
• Describe and understand• Identify the action perspective• Shape the intervention/ what is needed in
this value chain? – Capacity building
– Partnership building
– Sensitization
– Technology
– …..
• Identify how we can contribute to this
Action learning

Analysis for success!
• Monitor whether we are likely to achieve our gender objectives
