Joint Programme on Gender Transformative Approaches for Food Security, Improved Nutrition and Sustainable Agriculture

Persisting inequalities between women and men continue to undermine global efforts to end hunger, improve nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture and inclusive agri-food systems. Achieving gender equality and empowering women is a multifaceted and complex undertaking that calls for coordinated action between different organizations. The three United Nations Rome-based Agencies – FAO, IFAD and WFP – have therefore come together to implement the Joint Programme on Gender Transformative Approaches for Food Security, Improved Nutrition and Sustainable Agriculture (JP GTA), with the financial support of the European Union.

This is the official flyer of the JP GTA. It provides information about the Joint Programme's overview, background, objective, expected results, key components and country-level activities as well as key issues related to gender transformative approaches.
