Gendered governance of the maize value chain within refugee communities in Rwamwanja, Uganda
Refugee-hosting areas connect humanitarian support with wider commercial markets, creating distinct value-chain governance challenges. This study examined how coordination, market information, pricing, contracts, and gender shape the maize value chain around Rwamwanja refugee settlement in western Uganda. Using a cross-sectional mixed-methods case study, data were collected from 158 value-chain actors and eight key informants through surveys, int…
Leverage points for resilience
Sustainability transformation is a rapidly evolving field, yet few studies have explored approaches for food system transformation. This study addresses that gap by designing and applying a pyramid framework that integrates the leverage point perspective with three resilience capacities: coping, adaptive, and transformative. The goal of the framework is to (1) shed light on root causes that shape resilience and (2) pinpoint effective entry points…
Identifying leverage points for strengthening adaptive capacity to climate change
Leverage points from systems research are increasingly important to understand how to support transformations towards sustainability, but few studies have considered leverage points in strengthening adaptive capacity to climate change. The existing literature mainly considers strengthening adaptive capacity as a steady and linear process. This article explores possibilities to fast track positive adaptive capacity trajectories of small-scale farm…
What factors explain women's empowerment? Decision-making among small-scale farmers in Uganda
Evidence from studies on women's empowerment suggests that when women have a larger role in decision-making, household well-being improves. Understanding patterns influencing women's empowerment in rural areas is therefore important. We use gender-disaggregated survey data from rural Uganda to explore individual and household characteristics associated with women's empowerment. We find links between empowerment and age, education, proximity to a …
Innovation platforms
This article describes the process and analyses the results of a project in Ethiopia establishing an innovation platform (IP) as a tool for co-creation from an innovation systems perspective. The results are encouraging, suggesting positive effects both on yields, but more importantly on the capacity and role of participants as communicators and agents of change in the community. The IP seems promising in creating new networks and modes of commun…
A construção da significação da experiência do abuso sexual infantil através da narrativa
A pesquisa apresentada neste artigo, inscrita na Linguística Aplicada e inserida nos marcos teórico-metodológicos da Análise da Conversa (Sacks, 1992; Sacks; Schegloff; Jefferson, 1974) de natureza etnometodológica (Garfinkel, 1967), descreve e analisa qualitativamente interações entre um conselheiro tutelar e duas crianças vítimas de abuso sexual. Assumindo a necessidade de entender o abuso sexual de forma mais interdisciplinar, pesquisas sobre …
Minha mãe ficou amarga
A concepção de identidade pós-estruturalista, em uma perspectiva etnometodológica, trouxe profundas mudanças na maneira como se estabelecem as relações entre gênero e linguagem. Gênero passa a ser entendido como uma construção social que precisa ser (re)negociada a cada nova interação e, por não existir fora do discurso, não tem um status fixo e estável. Para entender como as identidades de gênero são interacionalmente negociadas, e aqui especifi…
