From the ground up: Cultivating gender equality in coffee farming It is impossible to achieve any of the UN Sustainable Development Goals without addressing gender equality. Yet women in rural farming communities are still fighting for their most basic rights. Specific challenges are increasingly understood at a local level – enabling tailored and contextually relevant responses. At the same time, new initiatives are creating meaningful change not just for women but entire communities. Nespresso is hosting a live panel discussion exploring proven approaches for cultivating gender equality in farming – from the ground up. Join us for the answers to questions like: What factors can help determine the progress of gender equality in farming? Why and how should men be part of the solutions? And what tools are available to build more long-term practices? #Moderator : Sharon Anderes - Global Corporate Communications Manager, Nestlé Nespresso SA #Panelists : Melanie Landthaler - Gender Specialist Senior, Nestlé Nespresso SA Ana Victoria Portocarrero Lacayo - Senior Gender Advisor, KIT Royal Tropical Institute Cristina Manfre - Global Gender Director, TechnoServe Daniel Costa Lima - Consultant #GenderEquality #Sustainability #Nespresso

Ethiopia: men and women work together in the coffee farm but mainly men farmers attend trainings regarding coffee agronomy
Can you explain how this work and capacity building activities connect with the role of the government and their obligations? for instance, as it was explained, including equality awareness in the education system for women and men
