Editor's Notes
The ATVET4W Project needed a legitimate tool to assess women's economic and social empowerment.
IFPRI was able to fulfill this demand through its Woman Empowerment in Agriculture Index
GmBS was used to train more than 4,500 agripreneurs including 70% of wonen in all 6 countries
Some of the partner training institutions already included GmBS in their training offers
GmBS was awarded in 2022 by GIZ as one of the best Gender product of the year
