The Global Food 50/50 initiative monitors progress and holds food system organizations accountable for advancing gender-just and equitable food systems. This event marks the launch of the third annual Global Food 50/50 Report, which reviews the gender- and equity-related policies and practices of 51 global food system organizations to assess two interlinked dimensions of inequality: inequality of opportunity in careers within organizations and inequality in who benefits from the global food system.

TatterEpisode 37: Level Up (Advancing Foreign Policy Through Feminism)ABOUT THIS EPISODE
As world leaders set their countries' foreign policies, history might seem an obvious basis upon which to base sound policy.
