Objectives of this study include:

• to better understand the different approaches donors use to address gender inequalities and promote WEE within the agribusiness initiatives they support;
• to assess, based on existing evidence, which approaches are most effective at delivering on WEE, including those which address the underlying causes/structural barriers to WEE;
• to identify key success factors and practical lessons learnt from existing best practice on WEE in agribusiness; and
• to propose focus areas and approaches for future donor engagement in agribusiness that are most likely to deliver on WEE and, in particular, gender transformative approaches on addressing structural barriers to WEE.
