At KIT Royal Tropical Institute, we move beyond conventional gender and development approaches by focusing on the transformative potential of gender work. We support the development and implementation of approaches that effectively lead to gender equality and women and girls’ empowerment.
We work on both stand-alone women’s rights and empowerment initiatives as well as gender equality and transformative change in relation to food security, natural resource management, energy, finance, agribusiness value chains, and health. We emphasise transformative and participatory learning to invite our partners to critically reflect on their gender initiatives.
