GENDER AND SOCIAL INCLUSION

Extends across IAIDI's Thematic Areas

Gender equality and social inclusion are central cross-cutting priorities in IAIDI’s programming, ensuring that all interventions actively address disparities and promote equitable opportunities for women, youth, and marginalized groups. In sustainable agriculture, IAIDI integrates gender-responsive approaches by improving women’s access to land, inputs, extension services, and climate-smart technologies, while addressing structural barriers that limit their participation and productivity. 









Within nutrition, gender and inclusion are critical to improving household food security and dietary outcomes. IAIDI promotes equitable decision-making over food production, income use, and consumption, ensuring that the nutritional needs of women, children, and vulnerable individuals are prioritized. Interventions are designed to be culturally sensitive and inclusive of persons with disabilities and other at-risk groups.

Across value chains and inclusive markets, IAIDI advances gender equity by supporting women- and youth-led enterprises, improving access to finance, and strengthening their participation in profitable market segments. Efforts are made to eliminate discriminatory practices, promote equal pay, and create safe and enabling business environments for all actors. 

Livelihood and resilience programming further embeds inclusion by targeting vulnerable populations with tailored support that enhances their adaptive capacity to shocks and stresses. IAIDI promotes diversified livelihood opportunities that are accessible and responsive to the needs of different social groups, reducing inequalities and strengthening community resilience.
