Independent Dialogue Synthesis Report

December 12, 2022

CARE convened dialogues with ten country offices across Eastern and Southern Africa (ESA), Asia and the Pacific Islands (APAC), and Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) to garner inclusive participation in the UN Food Systems Summit (UNFSS). The dialogues generated feedback on existing challenges within food systems, areas for CARE to prioritize moving forward, and creative solutions to complex global problems. After an analysis of the feedback reports for each dialogue, this synthesis was created to enhance understanding of what issues dialogues raised and to coordinate CARE staff around key areas to act on moving forward from the Summit.

Hunger Policies Continue to Ignore Gender

December 12, 2022

Hunger Policies Continue to Ignore Gender is CARE’s updated review of hunger action documents for their inclusion and funding of women and gender centered responses. An assessment of 86 documents demonstrated that organizations responsible for creating evidence on food insecurity and responses to hunger often overlook how gender inequality drives food insecurity for women and girls. Food policies are not keeping pace with the magnitude of the problem partly because they exclude the specific needs of women and girls, as well as their capacity to offer solutions best adapted to their needs.

Impact and Lessons from the CARE-WWF Alliance Project in Nachingwea District, Tanzania

November 8, 2022

Nachingwea, a district in the uniquely biodiverse Ruvuma landscape, is one of Tanzania’s poorest regions. Its communities rely largely on subsistence farming and are increasingly subject to the impacts of climate change, such as erratic rainfall resulting in droughts and floods. Women are especially vulnerable to these events due to the gender roles and socioeconomic marginalization that reduce their access to information, resources, and decision-making power— and thus, their ability to contribute to climate change resilience. This brief presents key impacts and lessons drawn from various monitoring, evaluation, and learning methods implemented through the project. After a mixed-methods baseline quantitative household survey of 30 clusters randomly selected from 126 villages, including all six project villages, an independent endline survey evaluated households from three project villages regarding changes in natural resource management agricultural practices, and their well-being, among other things.
