BRIDGE is a specialised gender and development research and information service based in the Gender and Sexuality Cluster at the Institute of Development Studies (IDS), in the UK. As part of a global network of individuals and organisations working to advance gender equality, women’s rights, dignity and empowerment in development, we advocate for the crucial importance of a gender perspective in efforts to reduce poverty and promote social justice. BRIDGE is committed to making multilingual gender knowledge accessible outside the research community and to building bridges and dialogue between researchers, policy-makers and practitioners.

    Gender

    In order to be effective, Women in Development initiatives need to be based on reliable data and area- specific information on gender roles in agricultural production and other contexts. This report calls for better gender-disaggregated information on the Pacific Region, with an emphasis on Fiji, Vanuatu and Samoa. For example, agricultural production is being increasingly privatised and export-driven under the World Trade Organization General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade.

    All communities have the right to contribute to climate adaptation strategies. This issue of Participatory Learning and Action was produced by the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) to coincide with the 2009 COP 15 and surrounding events. The publication aims to facilitate learning and experience-sharing around community-based adaptation (CBA) approaches that empower poor and marginalised communities and build on local knowledge and coping strategies.
