1 Gender and pastoralism Carola von Morstein, GIZ GmbH, Germany Division 45 Rural Development and Agriculture Conference on Advancement of Sustainable Pasture Management (SPM) in Central Asia GIZ Bishkek, November 2014 Sector Project Sustainable Management of Resources in Agriculture" Page 1
2 AGENDA The gender gap Situation of pastoral women The Mera Declaration of the Gathering of Women Pastoralists Conclusions Sector Project Sustainable Management of Resources in Agriculture" Page 2
3 The gender gap what is it The gender gap: The agriculture including the livestock sector are underperforming in many developing countries, in part because men and women do not have equal access to the resources and opportunities they need to be productive. Increasing women s access to land, livestock, education, financial services, extension, technology and rural employment would boost their productivity and generate gains in agricultural output, food security, economic growth and social welfare. The gains in agricultural production alone could lift million people out of hunger. Closing the gender gap is not only the right thing to do. It is crucial for agricultural development and food security (FAO). Sector Project Sustainable Management of Resources in Agriculture" Page 3
4 The gender gap The Global Gender Gap Index examines the gap between men and women in four fundamental categories: a) economic participation and opportunity, b) educational attainment, c) health and survival d) political empowerment. Gender Gap Index 2013 of the World Economic Forum (WE) out of 110 countries : Tajikistan 90 th rank with a score of 0,688 Kyrgyzstan 63rd rank with a score 0,695 Kazakhstan 32nd rank with a score of 0,722 Usbekistan 2009: 58th with a scor of 0,691 Turkmenistan no figures available Sector Project Sustainable Management of Resources in Agriculture" Page 4
5 Situation of pastoral women (1) World-wide great differences between and even inside pastoral societies but also similarities are found!!! Little recognition of the gender-specific distribution of labour in livestock keeping and processing Effected by sedentarization -- increased domestic and income generating burden -- need for alternative cash income ++ better access to health services and education Effected by degradation and encroachment due to climate change -- more time to graze animals, collecting water and firewood -- decreasing natural resources for economic activities Marginalization of women within the family (male dominated societies, little female decision making power, little ownership on land and livestock, limited mobility) Sector Project Sustainable Management of Resources in Agriculture" Page 5
6 Situation of pastoral women (2) Poor access to health care services, high maternal mortality rates Poor nutritional status Education is highly priced less investment in female education (short education, little secondary and vocational training) Limited access to land and financial, veterinary and other services Rarely addressed by the extension services Limited contribution in marketing activities Conflicts (access to land and physical threats to women and girls) Marginalization of female pastoralists by (national) development agendas (limited political participation and decision making power) Limited contribution to livestock production and economic power Sector Project Sustainable Management of Resources in Agriculture" Page 6
7 Situation of pastoral women (3) Increased social and political participation through female individuals and / or women groups Increased access to livestock services /credit/ knowledge / markets / technology / training Increased social and economic contribution to livestock production and empowerment of female pastoralists Sector Project Sustainable Management of Resources in Agriculture" Page 7
8 The Mera Declaration of the Gathering of Women Pastoralists ENSURE the equal rights of pastoralist women and recognize their key role in society. 5. PROTECT the rights of pastoralists and provide security in nomadic areas including the enforcement of laws that guarantee the safety of women. 9. ADAPT existing legislation to take into account the specificities of pastoralist ways of life and differentiate nomadic and transhumant pastoralism from intensive livestock production. 10. PROMOTE regional policies and treaties that take into account transborder pastoralism and respect traditional grazing territories and migratory patterns. These are to be negotiated in consultation with pastoralist women. 11. DEVELOP specific policies that promote the sustainability and welfare of pastoral ways of life and the ecosystems we rely on for survival. The policy-making process must include meaningful participation, and consultation, with pastoralist women. Sector Project Sustainable Management of Resources in Agriculture" Page 8
9 The Mera Declaration of the Gathering of Women Pastoralists ALLOW year-round access to grazing lands, including some lands that are currently within wild life preserves and conservation areas. These grazing spaces are to be established in consultation with pastoralist women. 15. ENSURE proportionate representation of pastoralist women in all levels of governance. 16. RESPECT the right of pastoralist women to education, both formal and informal, and including secondary education. Provide support to shift perceptions around the full educational needs of girls. 17. DEVELOP accessible and appropriate programs for pastoralist children to access education. Special emphasis is to be given to pastoralist girl children. These are to be developed in consultation with pastoralist women. 19. DEVELOP and implement programs that support women s health in pastoralist communities. Information and training on health, particularly reproductive health, should be given priority. Sector Project Sustainable Management of Resources in Agriculture" Page 9
10 The Mera Declaration of the Gathering of Women Pastoralists CREATE and support programs that promote the economic development and diversify economic opportunities for pastoralist women, including micro-credit financing. These programs must be developed in consultation with pastoralist women. 21. SUPPORT pastoral women through capacity building, including direct access to markets and training to improve the quality and marketability of their work and managerial skills. 22. SUPPORT training programs focused on leadership and communication to enable pastoralist women to effectively participate in negotiations in all issues affecting their ways of life.
