Towards equality for women and men in root and tuber agri-food systems – International Potato Center

UN Women notes that 2020 represents a crucial opportunity to mobilize global action to achieve gender equality and human rights for all women and girls. At the International Potato Center (CIP) we back this campaign, and see it as an opportunity to continue delivering science-based innovations that benefit both men and women by enhancing access to affordable nutritious food, fostering inclusive sustainable business and employment growth, and strengthening the climate resilience of root and tuber agri-food systems.

As CIP marks International Women’s Day 2020, we share these testimonials with you—from our scientists and beneficiaries in Asia and Africa.
