<h2 id="w_backround">Background</h2>
[File file=FAO-Infographic-Gender-ClimateChange-en.JPG|right]
Both women and men play a significant role in safeguarding food security, and their respective roles and responsibilities need to be well understood to ensure that men and women benefit equally from climate-smart agriculture practices. Little research, however, has been undertaken to understand how men and women are adapting to climate change, mitigating emissions and maintaining food security.
<h2 id="w_about-the-training-guide">About the training guide</h2>
As one of many steps toward addressing this gap, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations ([Pagelink infos="FAO"]) and CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) have developed a training guide on “Gender and climate change research in agriculture and food security for rural development.”

The training guide:
<ul>
	<li>provides a clear understanding of the concepts related to gender and climate-smart agriculture;</li>
	<li>describes participatory methods for conducting gender-sensitive research on the impacts of climate change; and</li>
	<li>offers guidance on different ways of reporting research findings so that they can be properly analyzed.</li>
</ul>
Using the guide will ensure that critical information on gender and climate change is collected, allowing researchers and development workers to formulate appropriate gender-sensitive policies and programmes for rural development.
