Advancing Gender in the Environment (AGENT)
Technical Support Snapshots
Expert advice. Tailored to you.
AGENT provides tailored technical support to USAID and IUCN activities with special focus on women’s leadership, women’s economic empowerment and strengthened livelihoods. Technical gender specialists work closely with programmes, projects and local stakeholders to develop and apply gender analyses and action plans, for example, and build specific strategies, tools and in-house capacities to address gender gaps and realize gender-responsive results.

At the request of USAID’s Office of Forestry and Biodiversity (FAB), AGENT provided support and guidance in the development of a gender analysis for a global alliance, the Seafood Alliance for Legality and Traceability (SALT).
Mainstreaming gender in regional biodiversity projects
AGENT provided gender technical support for USAID’s Regional Coastal Biodiversity Project in Central America (RCBP). This included a gender analysis for one of the project sites where information was gathered by conducting workshops and focus groups with local women and men.
