Gender equity at workplace key to organizational success
International Women’s Day 2019 @ ICRISAT
Fostering gender diversity and inclusion at
the workplace, and creating frameworks
to support women in science was the
focus of Women’s Day special celebrations
at ICRISAT-India on 8 March.
A diverse panel of veterans in research,
gender equity, policy and human
resources debated on bridging the gender
divide. The panelists emphasized the need
for workplaces to be gender diverse. They
also narrated anecdotes and quoted data
to convey what a gender-neutral
workforce could mean for organizations
like ICRISAT and the society at large.
Addressing subtle but pervasive gender
bias can be a challenge, Ms Fiona
Bourdin-Farrell, Director, Human
Resources Services, said during a talk on
unconscious gender bias in workplaces.
The presentation showed that with
awareness and organizational drive to
create better workplaces such biases can
be corrected.
Rural innovators remain the foundation of our work
Dr R Padmaja, Senior Scientist, Gender Research, ICRISAT
If we talk about innovation, trailblazers contributing to gender equality are
the rural women, men, boys and girls living in fragile environments of the
semi-arid tropics. As our key stakeholders, they are constantly challenged to
innovate in their homes, communities and fields. They help us understand
what we need to bring change. This understanding remains the foundation of
our work.
As we understand better the landscape where we aim to bring gender
transformative change, we begin to engage diverse audiences, think outside
the box, establish new research partnerships and expand the horizons of
gender research. We are also inspired by other gender research to identify
research gaps, build strategic collaborations, and incubate/sustain innovators.
I think there are many opportunities to contribute to the building of gender-
equitable agricultural innovations. It starts with continually disrupting
exclusion and transforming our technical interventions and knowledge.
Intersectionality is another area that offers great potential. Many research
initiatives focus on empowering women in their productive role and as
members, or even leaders, of community groups (e.g. self-help groups).
While this has led to their empowerment in public space, it remains to be
seen whether it translates into improved household dynamics and improved
quality of life.

Dr Jummai Yila, Scientist, Gender Research, speaks during a seminar at ICRISAT-Mali. Gender equity at workplace key to organizational success International Women’s Day 2019 @ ICRISAT Fostering gender diversity and inclusion at the workplace, and creating frameworks to support women in science was the focus of Women’s Day special celebrations at ICRISAT-India on 8 March. A diverse panel of veterans in research, gender equity, policy and human resources debated on bridging the gender divide. The panelists emphasized the need for workplaces to be gender diverse. They also narrated anecdotes and quoted data to convey what a gender-neutral workforce could mean for organizations like ICRISAT and the society at large. Addressing subtle but pervasive gender bias can be a challenge, Ms Fiona Bourdin-Farrell, Director, Human Resources Services, said during a talk on unconscious gender bias in workplaces. The presentation showed that with awareness and organizational drive to create better workplaces such biases can be corrected. Rural innovators remain the foundation of our work Dr R Padmaja, Senior Scientist, Gender Research, ICRISAT If we talk about innovation, trailblazers contributing to gender equality are the rural women, men, boys and girls living in fragile environments of the semi-arid tropics. As our key stakeholders, they are constantly challenged to innovate in their homes, communities and fields. They help us understand what we need to bring change. This understanding remains the foundation of our work. As we understand better the landscape where we aim to bring gender transformative change, we begin to engage diverse audiences, think outside the box, establish new research partnerships and expand the horizons of gender research. We are also inspired by other gender research to identify research gaps, build strategic collaborations, and incubate/sustain innovators. I think there are many opportunities to contribute to the building of gender- equitable agricultural innovations. It starts with continually disrupting exclusion and transforming our technical interventions and knowledge. Intersectionality is another area that offers great potential. Many research initiatives focus on empowering women in their productive role and as members, or even leaders, of community groups (e.g. self-help groups). While this has led to their empowerment in public space, it remains to be seen whether it translates into improved household dynamics and improved quality of life.
