Women play a key role in Egypt’s horticulture sector, particularly in processing firms and pack houses, and considering their priorities and constraints will be key to achieving the Project’s objectives. Similarly, farm-level participation in decisions regarding investment or new crop choices are often made by husbands and wives together, but the information that informs decisions is most often targeted at men. Led by Gender Integration Lead Ms. Ghada Hammam, the Project is integrating women and family units as agents of change, and give women more exposure to resources and information so that they can enhance their roles in all parts of the value chain. In any farm-level training we emphasize the level of participation decision-making, such as family budgeting for farm investment for both men and women with knowledge.
The Gender Analyst will be responsible for providing high quality technical assistance in ensuring the quality of the gender-responsiveness and mainstreaming of the project, as well as knowledge and capacity development services, to the beneficiary communities and target groups through conducting training programs to target population, both males and females, of fresh university graduates and women beneficiaries in target areas in Delta & Upper Egypt. The Analyst will work together with and under the supervision of Gender Integration Lead to fulfil all project requirements. The analyst will participate in delivering TOT trainings to university graduates and teachers of Agricultures Technical Schools (ATS) in target governorates to increase their knowledge about gender concepts, gender analysis, gender mainstreaming activities, and improve their skills in conducting gender awareness sessions. Trained university graduates and teachers of ATS will participate in the project activities, and they will have an important role in gender-sensitive social and behavioral change communication. The analyst will also support in the application of tools, methodologies and innovation for participatory and gender-responsive design, implementation and monitoring & evaluation of the project activities, updating the gender concept note as well as conducting relevant research.
