In 2013, we continued responding to humanitarian crises with a particular focus on preventing and responding to violence against women during conflict and disasters. We empowered women who are vulnerable to violence during disasters to identify the threats they face, and to make themselves better prepared to respond.

From Isolio and Kieni in Kenya, where we promoted sustainable agriculture among women smallholder farmers, consumers, academics and government officials, to Oddar Meanchey in Cambodia, where we supported residents to diversify their crops, we enabled farmers – especially women – to improve agricultural techniques and yields, as well as make their voices and needs heard at local, regional and international levels.
