Building on this potential, Katalyst’s Women’s Economic Empowement (WEE) sector designed an intervention to provide training in modern prawn cultivation techniques and input and create linkages between feed and aqua-chemical companies with women prawn farmers of the Jessore-Khulna Bagerhat Satkhira Narail belt. Through this intervention, 22,170 women farmers have improved access to quality inputs and relevant know-how.
Women in agriculture are far from the end of poverty, zero hunger, quality education, and gender equality — some of the sustainable development goals that can be significantly improved if we achieve greater participation and better working conditions for women in agriculture.
The goal of both of this report is to draw lessons from Katalyst’s experience which could be used more broadly. As the private sector assumes a more significant role in the architecture of development it is important to understand more clearly what benefits companies might get from greater engagement; and also what actions work best to facilitate inclusive market approaches.
The number of theories of innovation systems has grown considerably over the past two decades and several innovation system approaches have been developed.

Este informe describe los cambios y las dinámicas actuales de los vínculos urbano-rurales enfocandose en el análisis de los circuitos cortos de comercialización (CCC) e iniciativas empresariales exitosas que valorizan los sistemas alimentarios locales
The purpose of this study is to develop a robust, rigorous and replicable methodology that is flexible to data limitations and spatially prioritizes the vulnerability of agriculture and rural livelihoods to climate change. The methodology was applied in Vietnam, Uganda and Nicaragua, three contrasting developing countries that are particularly threatened by climate change. We conceptualize vulnerability to climate change following the widely adopted combination of sensitivity, exposure and adaptive capacity.
Comment se porte le secteur laitier ? En Europe, il n’en est pas à sa première crise. Au Sud, il subit les conséquences de la surproduction et des exportations massives.
Atentos a la dinámica que han seguido los mercados internacionales de productos agrícolas, y con el interés de contribuir al debate, al análisis y a la toma de decisiones informadas para hacer frente al complejo problema de la volatilidad de precios, nos complace presentar este primer número del Boletín interinstitucional CEPAL-FAOIICA, que forma parte de la iniciativa que nuestras instituciones vienen emprendiendo desde 2009 para elaborar, cada año, una publicación sobre las perspectivas de la agricultura y el desarrollo rural en América Latina y el Caribe.
Cet article reprend des travaux de prospective réalisés sur l’Afrique de l’Ouest. Il souligne la tendance à l’augmentation de la taille et à la concentration des exploitations agricoles. Selon les auteurs, cette évolution nécessitera pour l’agriculture familiale une transition vers une vocation plus commerciale.
