Gender Analysis of Food Systems Policies:Supporting gender responsive policies and policy development processes in Nigeria.

- 22/12/2025

Nigeria’s food systems are critical for national development, yet women face deep-seated gender inequalities that restrict their participation, productivity, and access to resources, significantly hindering overall food security. Achieving a resilient and equitable food system requires moving beyond genderneutral rhetoric towards intentional policy shifts, fostering inclusive governance, and investing in gender equity across the entire food system. Prioritise equitable access to productive resources, strengthen women’s leadership in decision-making, enhance gender-disaggregated data systems, and champion community-led social norm change to build a sustainable food system where no one is left behind.

Belensesses Market — A Photo Story

In the heart of Nampula, an old market is shifting into something new and so are the lives within it. What began as an ordinary field visit became an unexpected turning point, captured through a lens that witnessed far more than change in bricks and sand. This photo story follows that quiet transformation: the people who have waited for it, the place that needed it, and the question that emerged and only later found its answer.

Community of Practice: Bringing together entrepreneurs for better food systems in Nigeria

Community of Practice: Bringing together entrepreneurs for better food systems in Nigeria As the world marks Global Entrepreneurship Week 2025 under the theme “Together We Build,” the SUN Business Network (SBN) Nigeria is taking a bold step toward strengthening collaboration among entrepreneurs driving change in the food system. With the recent launch of its website and Community of Practice, SBN Nigeria is creating a vibrant space where nutrition-focused businesses can learn, connect, and grow together. This milestone represents more than a digital achievement, it’s a movement toward building a community where shared ideas fuel innovation, partnerships inspire action, and entrepreneurs collectively shape a healthier, more resilient food system for Nigeria.

From sand to solar tent

Moma, Mozambique – When Islova Alberto Aly decided to venture into fish drying, her primary aim was to generate an income to support her children's education.
