The farmers of the future: including the family
Strategies
• Agenda setting: campaigning • Supporting Southern partners• Co-creating with private sector and other
stakeholders: Joint proposal + funding
• Joint implementation (ej PPP)• Monitoring, Learning, Measuring impact• Next level: lobby to scale up, adress new
topics from evaluation

Strategy: Co-creation
Strategies Financing and implementing PPPs
Examples: •WEMAN programme Oxfam-Novib•Coffee Partnership for Tanzania•4S@scale : Secure and Sustainable Smallholder Systems at scale
Strategy PPP Implemention:
Change in 6 monthsThe story of Dinnah
Before: widow, beaten up by relatives when husband died, took her land away
Interventions: gender action learning
After: new teeth – new confidence Elected in board of cooperative union
Strategy Implementation: Results WEMAN
Africa
KEY AREAS OF CHANGE 35,000 vulnerable women and men in Uganda, Rwanda, Nigeria and Zimbabwe: •Benefits more equally shared•Emergency sales reduced; better health, education•More equal division productive – reproductive tasks men and women•Women more secure access to land, resulting in higher productivity and better quality of produce•Stronger farmer associations•Reduced ad-hoc trade
RESULTS Uganda 2009-2011: 3600 coffee farmers•Organic and FT certified; 76 % certificates in name of husband and wife•69 % of 3600 coffee producers share productive and reproductive tasks •48 % of the households women’s landrigths been formally acknowledged•Coffee traders ad-hoc trading reduced•Large buyers value work women in hand sorting and improving working conditions
Strategy Implementation:Lessons learnt
• Changing gender inequalities makes business sense;
• Changing gender relations and norms does not have to take generations. With a critical mass of participants a momentum and movement is created;
• Win-win strategies between vulnerable and more powerful chain actors are possible;
• Gender Action Learning System is a complementary methodology. Used stand-alone, it requires a complementary programme to address issues of asset-poor
• Critical organisational factors in local partners determine how fast impact can be made (decision making structure, organisational policies, effectiveness of linkages with government and private sector)
• Self-M&E by vulnerable actors needs to be complemented with external M&E
• Monogamous married couples quicker to increase incomes and welfare than particularly asset-poor women (widows, single mothers, co-wives in polygamous HH)
Strategy Financing Revisited
Strategy Learning documenting sharing
• Coffee toolkit:Sustainable coffee
farming as a family business
• Challenges Chains to Change
• SustainabilityXchange
Conclusion
• Climate change is caused by and impacts men and women differently: they have different solutions (nutrient-, water-, carbon- balanced and biodiversity)
• Gender approach: Access and control over resources and benefits, decision making, equal division of labour) - > generic tools
• Scalable: pyramid scaling by farmers, NGOs and private sector facilitate learning, monitor scaling and impact
• Finance: multi- and bi-lateral donors, private sector, NGOs, producer organisations; when impact measured can use W+ standard to sell gender credits
