ACIAR Research Proposal Gender Guidelines (PDF)
Improving gender equity and empowerment of women and girls are key objectives for ACIAR. ACIAR is committed to tackling gender inequality in research design, delivery and impact. Integrating gender in agricultural research for development is smart and sensible development as it addresses the needs of both women and men, while recognising and addressing unequal access to resources and decision making.
The Guidelines are designed to assist researchers to ensure proposals present aims, objectives, research activities, methods, capacity-building activities and outputs that can effectively address women’s empowerment and gendered social relations. The guidelines were prepared by Dr Jo Caffery, University of Canberra and inaugural ACIAR Visiting Fellow.
