“Baba Sultan Ibrahim, Chairperson of the Women’s Association of the Limani Subprefecture in Guité, Chad, underlined the role women play in regaining livelihoods. For example, the provision of agricultural and fishing inputs and tools enabled farmers and fishers (60 percent of whom are women) to earn a living and support their families. The participation of women in multifunctional platforms has also enabled them to collaborate on creating innovative products and incorporating innovative sales strategies. Equipping them with these tools not only resulted in increased productivity but in gaining financial security and preventing gender-based violence.”
