Section Structure Introduction -link why (arguments/objectives) to the how (strategy) and where in the value chain (household level, producer level, producer-organization, etc.) -short introduction to each chapter and how it contributes to the section Chapters (structured by 6 guiding questions using cases, boxes and stories/profiles) Conclusions to the Section

Strategy - section Use traditionally female activities as an entry point to reach women and improve and build on the activities that they are already engaged in. The goal is to allow a stronger social position of women at household and community level. The strategy is to achieve this through improved economic positions. -An action is done because an impact is wanted – higher than a specific intervention – draw out what the chapters have in common.

Chapter structure What is the strategy? Why do it? How to do it? What is the change? When is it a good strategy? Considerations

Strategy – chapter Bring markets closer to the women to address barriers to women’s participation. This allows access to markets, and through that also easier access to services. It increases income and position in the household and society level. – higher than a specific intervention – draw out what the cases have in common

Strategy - chapter [Intro needs to be clear as to what a label/seal is and how premiums work] Use a label/seal (mark) to increase the visibility of women producers. Through the premium associated with the seal, these producers gain more income. That the product was produced by women becomes value-added. These economic benefits are a motivating force at the production level for both men and women.

The Change Numbers and proof at case level Sketch the issue – refer to cases General lines e.g. Ethiopia example –Where policies prevent…. Chapter - we are after changes at different levels –Individuals –Household –Community –Chain –Institutions

Change - livestock The most significant change is access to markets that increased income for the women involved (in the case of Kenya by 60%). Markets are often far away from communities where women live. [refer to the strategy] Bringing markets closer to women allows them to engage more actively….now women are getting better prices for their animals because they meet with the buyers and can negotiate [impact]. For example in the case of Kenya …… Because of this economic success the attitude of society members changed, as well as those at the household level.
