Position: RFP - Gender Consultancy
Organization: Better Cotton Initiative (BCI)
Location: Maharashtra
Apply: https://www.devnetjobsindia.org/JobDescription.aspx?Job_Id=196843
Description
Better Cotton is the world’s largest cotton sustainability programme. Our mission: to help cotton communities survive and thrive, while protecting and restoring the environment. In challenging times, we are meeting the challenge head on. Through our network of field-level partners we have trained over 2.5 million farmers in 23 countries in more sustainable farming practices. A quarter of the world’s cotton is now grown under the Better Cotton Standard System.
Background
We are seeking proposals from skilled organisations to help us progress gender equality in cotton farming through two Better Cotton projects in Maharashtra, India. In these project areas, women conduct 84% of weeding activities, 74% of fertilizer application activities, and 94% of cotton picking activities. Though they conduct a significant proportion of cotton production activities, prevailing social norms, limited access to knowledge and resources, and lack of participation in market- facing roles limit their inclusion in farm level decision-making
