Join the CGIAR Accelerator Gender Equality & Inclusion, in collaboration with the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) and the Western Cape Government, in Cape Town for the 2025 Gender Conference, a pivotal gathering at the intersection of gender equality and sustainable development. This year’s theme, “Accelerating Equality in Food, Land, and Water Systems,” highlights the urgent need to address gender disparities as we approach the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
Bringing together global researchers, policymakers, practitioners, and civil society, the conference aims to uncover innovative solutions, share evidence-based practices, and foster collaboration to drive meaningful change. Through insightful discussions and interactive sessions, we’ll tackle the structural barriers that hinder progress, explore strategies to empower women and youth, and chart a course toward inclusive, climate-resilient food systems.
Be part of this transformative event as we unite to advance gender equality, social inclusion, and sustainable development worldwide.
