action_plan:

This recommendation is noted and appreciated. The WEAI was a powerful research tool that was appreciated by many Taqeem beneficiary organizations. • Starting blogs and discussions – agreed, this can be done through the online Taqeem platform • Conduct WEAI standalone trainings – agreed and should be done in partnership with IFPRI, IFAD, FAO • Encourage early adoption by offering monetary or in-kind incentive – disagree, this recommendation seems to be in contradiction to previous recommendations on grant mechanisms.

title:

9) Consider a more purposeful and planned introduction to the WEAI tool in future phases of Taqeem through adopting the following strategies: • Raise awareness of the CoP members to the WEAI tool five domains and applications through conducting a series of workshops/sessions prior to the call for proposals; the awareness raising session would introduce the WAEI index, and aim to increase understanding of the connections between women’s empowerment, food security, and agricultural growth. It measures the roles and extent of women’s engagement in the agriculture sector in 5 domains: decisions about agricultural production, access to and decision making power over productive resources, control over use of income, leadership in the community, and time use. • Capitalize on the CoP platform to start blogs and discussions with the main aim to attract attention and promote the tool. • Conduct WEAI tool standalone training program rather than incorporating it as a module within a whole program; consider inviting IFPRI to deliver the training or serve as resource experts. • Encourage CoP adoption of the tool not only through offering flexible or modified versions of the tool, but also though an incentive mechanism (perhaps a monetary or in-kind incentive).
