Shifting Knowledge and Attitudes on Gender related to Forest and Landscape Restoration – A couple’s perspective. Insights from married couples in Makueni County, Kenya

Shifting Knowledge and Attitudes on Gender related to Forest and Landscape Restoration – A couple’s perspective. Insights from married couples in Makueni County, Kenya
This brief presents the results of a small study that sought to reveal some of the change dynamics resulting from the participation of couples from the Mbooni Community Forest Association (CFA) in a two-day training, Breaking Ground: Community Dialogues on Gender and Restoration.
This training was delivered under the UK Partnering for Accelerated Climate Transitions (UK PACT) funded project, “Delivering nature-based solution outcomes by addressing policy, institutional and monitoring gaps in forest and landscape restoration”, led by CIFOR-ICRAF in partnership with African Wildlife Foundation (AWF), FAO-Kenya, and the County Government of Makueni, Kenya. The project is a unique capacity-building programme jointly governed and funded by the UK Government’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) through the UK’s International Climate Finance. It works in partnership with countries with high emissions reduction potential to support them in implementing and increasing their ambitions for tackling climate change.
