The International Fund for Agricultural Development - IFAD
Prev Websites 16 of 27 Next
In IFAD's development activities, gender mainstreaming implies assessing the implications for women and men of any planned action.
The International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), a specialized agency of the United Nations, was established as an international financial institution in 1977 as one of the major outcomes of the 1974 World Food Conference. In this context, IFAD was created to mobilize resources on concessional terms for programmes that alleviate rural poverty and improve nutrition.

In IFAD’s development activities, gender mainstreaming implies assessing the implications for women and men of any planned action, including legislation, and ensuring that both women’s and men’s concerns and experiences are taken fully into account in the design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of all development activities.
