Objective
•
Make contributions of women
to the value chain visible, also
the ‘invisible’ ones
•
Identify involvement of
women in the segments of
the value chain where value
adding is high;
•
Use a gender lens to identify
bottlenecks in the value
chain.
Coaching Trajectories
Objectives: contribute to better functioning coffee value chains, based on farming as a
family business, producing more coffee of a better quality from which all members of
the family benefit
Outputs: staff of AFCA members (private sector, NGO or service provider) are trained
and supported in applying gender- and youth sensitive approaches to sustainable
development of the coffee value chain with family focus
Coaching package includes:
1) Kick off workshop
2) 3 days face to face coaching by coffee in value chain coach (spread of longer time)
3) Experiences sharing with peers
4) Advice on use of tools to apply from the toolkit
Coaching Trajectory in 2014
in Burundi and DRC,
Time Frame
• 1st coaching meeting with coach
after kick off workshop
• Refine the Gender Action Plan and
the coaching objectives
• Set a « calendar » for the 3 days of
coaching
• Knowledge sharing events / field
visits (dates to be determined….)
• Coaching period lasts between 8
and 9 months
• Writing cases with impact achieved
and lessons learned
• Closing workshop for sharing of
experiences achievements
Objectives of the Kick-off workshop
Familiarize participants with principles
Introduce gender and value chain concepts and
theories
Present a selection of tools: gender based
planning and analysis
Identify challenges / gender based constraints and
identify possible solutions for ‘own’ value chains
Learn about strategies to mainstream gender in
VCD and draft action plans
Bring together the APF Agri-Hub coaching
community in the country of intervention
Objectives of the Closing workshop
learn at personal and organizational
levels and impact on target populations
Reflect on the coaching process, in terms
of content, methodology and facilitation
Share experience on the tools used (from
the toolkit) and provide recommendations
Reflect on the next coaching track and
their future roles
APF gathers information to feed into and
improve the next coaching tracks
Sharing Event: learn from others

The Gender in Value Chains Toolkit
Two types of tools:
1. To support data-collection and research
to gain insight into gender constraints,
opportunities and strategies within value
chains;
2. To guide the facilitation of participatory
processes in order to involve male and
female value chain actors at different
stages.
3. To combine interventions in an
approach
Were can I find the toolkit?
2. Analyzing Gender Based constaints
What do you gain from using it?
•
Insight in constraints faced by different gender groups in undertaking
their activities in different nodes of the value chain
•
Support to define actions to address these constraints
Steps:
1. Analyzing gender based constraints per actor and activity in the value
chain
2. Identification of actions to address gender-based constraints
Steps Analyzing Gender Based constaints
Steps Analyzing Gender Based constaints
3. Making visible who contributes how to
the quality of the product
What do you gain from using it?
• Make men and women’s contribution
to the quality of products and
processes in the value chain visible.
• Create awareness of the unequal
distribution of benefits between men
and women from participating in the
value chain.
How does it work?
• Men and women work in separate
groups
• Sharing and discussions their
conclusions in plenary
4. Assessing costs and benefits of an
intervention strategy for men and women
What do you gain from using it?
• Assess the possible or actual costs and benefits of the value chain upgrading
strategy for different actors in the value chain,
• considering relevant dimensions such as amount of work, income, social position
or market position.
• Analyze costs and benefits differentiated by gender.
How does it work?
• In a workshop men and women analyze the (potential) effects of an upgrading
strategy for different actors, male and female).
• Using the cost - benefit matrix for reporting.
• Use different colors for positive and negative changes.
• Each group presents its completed matrix in a plenary session.
