The Gender & Nutrition within Extension success story competition aims to capture real-life case studies of stakeholders in Uganda who are strengthening Agricultural Extension & Advisory Services by integrating gender and nutrition approaches, leading to improved livelihoods for smallholder farmers. This is not a traditional success story competition!

We want to hear;

  1. What approaches are working well?
  2. What are the struggles & challenges in integrating gender & nutrition?
  3. What are lessons learned?
  4. What are some best-practices that you have encountered?

Cases can be about a big program intervention, or about a small practice that made an important difference to your work.

Examples of Themes & Actions:

  • Utilize gender analysis to inform service/program design and implementation
  • Diversify production to meet  nutritional needs
  • Provide market oriented advisory services
  • Encourage small scale production such as Homestead gardens

Benefits:

10 winning cases will present their cases at the INGENAES UFAAS 2018 National Symposium scheduled for March 12th-15th, 2018 at Hotel Africana, Kampala.
