This policy brief synthesises Zaman Lebidi and CIARE’s approach to gender as a resilience building strategy, defining a gender transformative approach and examining to what extent the project activities align with this approach. It gives an overview of the workshop carried out in Burkina Faso with partners in December 2016, focussing in particular on the lessons learned and action plan drawn from both workshop discussions and the field activity. Finally it provides suggestions for moving forward with a stronger gender component within BRACED.
