Building on Gender, Agrobiodiversity and Local Knowledge – A Training Manual
The manual "Building on Gender, Agrobiodiversity and Local Knowledge" is based on experiences collected in numerous training workshops carried out under the FAO-LinKS project in Eastern and Southern Africa. This training manual constitutes a conceptual guide for trainers that can be used to lead them through the issues of gender and local knowledge which are important elements for agrobiodiversity management and food security.
This document presents the key readings from the training manual, which provides articles on several topics such as the role of women as users, preservers and managers of agrobiodiversity, the possible response from the public sector to conserve neglected species, and community seed banks.
