Description
<p>This research report considers the perspectives of women&rsquo;s organizations and their strategies in dealing with vulnerability to shocks and crises, and building resilience in a context of food insecurity. The report identifies what 21 women&rsquo;s organizations across 10 countries consider to be the key threats to resilience, and draws lessons from their ways of working.&nbsp;</p> <p>Five chapters review the methodology of the research, explore definitions of resilience, consider threats to food security, and survey the learning from specific ways of working - all from the perspective of grassroots women&rsquo;s organizations themselves. The report then offers focused conclusions and recommendations for action on how to build resilience from a gender and women&rsquo;s rights perspective. The report includes a comprehensive description of the 21 women&rsquo;s organizations in 10 countries which contributed to the project.</p>
