Show Notes

Today's episode is produced in partnership with the CGIAR Research Initiative on Fragility, Conflict, and Migration as part of a series that examines effective approaches to improving the well-being of people in fragile and conflict-affected settings. CGIAR is a global partnership that brings together international organizations focused on research for food security.

We are calling this series "From Fragility to Stability." In today's episode, we host a roundtable discussion with three experts on how to place women's empowerment at the core of resilience-building efforts.

Our guests include:

  • Vivian Efem-Bassey, Programs Management Specialist in the Women's Rights Unit at ActionAid in Nigeria.
  • Sarah Hendricks, Director of the Policy, Program, and Intergovernmental Division of UN Women and Head of the Secretariat for the Secretary-General's Gender Equality Acceleration Plan.
  • Jordan Kyle, Research Fellow in the Gender and Inclusion Unit at the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI).
