Supporting the Rwandan Coffee Sector: Gender Equality at Cooperative Leadership Level

Our lead consultant in People Management, Linzi Moore is working with 2 leading INGOs to design facilitation sessions that encourage women to become more involved at a leadership level in the coffee cooperatives of Rwanda. The modules will be paired with technical sessions that help farmers get the best quality coffee from their trees, and will work with both husbands and wives to ensure all parties are on board with any changes needed in the family to support the women's leadership roles.

Once the modules are designed they will be rolled out across the country and potentially the region of East Africa. IMA are excited to be working on this project - look out for updates as the modules are piloted through spring and summer 2012.
