The purpose of this Brief is to provide EU staff with an overview on how to incorporate a gender-responsive approach in the design, implementation and monitoring of value chain development projects. The Brief complements the guidance note Because women matter: Designing interventions in food, nutrition and agriculture that allow women to change their lives. It also complements the EU’s Value Chain Analysis for Development (VCA4D) methodology, which provides a detailed assessment of a value chain’s operation and its impact on the main economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development; gender equality is one of the six domains of the social analysis.
