Making Food Systems Work for Women and Girls

The coalition’s goal is to ensure that as food systems transform, they do so in just, equitable, and inclusive ways by engaging and benefitting all women, girls, boys, and men. This is to advance solutions and innovations reflected in the National Food System Transformation Pathways. The coalition will unite stakeholders with common goals around gender equality and women’s empowerment.
