CIFOR-ICRAF’s Post

At #COP16Riyadh, CIFOR-ICRAF's Anne Larson spotlighted Gender Transformative Approaches (GTAs) in a session on making land restoration efforts more inclusive. Drawing on insights from an International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD)-led project, Anne emphasized that GTAs go beyond addressing symptoms of gender inequality by tackling its structural causes, shifting socio-cultural norms, and reforming laws and policies. This approach empowers women’s land and resource rights while challenging power dynamics across all levels. Participants explored how these strategies can improve women’s access to opportunities and secure their roles in land governance. The session also highlighted practical tools and evidence-based practices to promote sustainable and equitable land restoration.
