Item Standard Operating Proceedure: Regeneration and characterization of bean genetic resources - CIAT Genebank(Manual, 2019) Gereda, Javier Mauricio; Sabogal Carvajal, Ramiro; Debouck, Daniel; Wenzl, PeterItem Metodología LINK con un enfoque sensible a las necesidades de género(Manual, 2018) Lundy, Mark M.; Amrein, Alexandra; Hurtado Bermudez, Jhon Jairo; Becx, Gertjan; Zamierowski, Nancy; Rodríguez Camayo, Fernando; Mosquera Echeverry, Erika Eliana; Gumucio, TatianaAunque la Metodología LINK se centra en la inclusión de mujeres y hombres que producen a pequeña escala dentro de los modelos de negocio, las primeras versiones de LINK no prestaron especial atención al empoderamiento económico de la mujer, como sí lo hace este manual. Existe una tendencia en varios países y sociedades a que la mujer quede excluida de los mercados más rentables y lucrativos, en comparación con el hombre. Por eso es necesario efectuar análisis e intervenciones concretas para poder incluir a la mujer en mercados lucrativos. También es importante destacar que proyectos y programas que buscan aumentar el empoderamiento económico de la mujer deben trabajar tanto con mujeres como con hombres e incluirlos como socios.Item Farmer business school.

The document provides Farmer Business School (FBS) facilitators with the tools, skills, and knowledge that will allow them to guide farmers as they go through their FBS experience. Through FBS, we hope for farmers to improve their business skills and obtain a better understanding of the different aspects relating to the agricultural product market through a learning-by-doing method.
