Additionally, the publication provides recommendations for further actions. It targets practitioners, including extension staff, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), community-based organizations (CBOs), and academic institutions involved in providing technical support to farmers and policymakers, particularly those engaged in gender and climate change issues. Furthermore, the publication will benefit, guide, and inspire current and future FAO field projects that incorporate a post-harvest component.
