Partnership tool for Women RISE

Two-stage Call for Proposals for Research Teams for Women’s health and economic empowerment for a COVID-19 Recovery that is Inclusive, Sustainable and Equitable

Women RISE aims to support action-oriented, gender transformative research on how women’s health and their work (paid or unpaid) intersect and interact in the context of preparing for, responding to and recovering from COVID-19.

This Partnership Tool is meant to facilitate connections and collaborations between researchers and decision-makers in Canada and in low- and middle-income countries in relation to the funding opportunity - Women RISE Call for Proposals for Research Teams. The funding opportunity is published on the IDRC Funding page. 

The table below shows information submitted by researchers, decision-makers and organizations interested in collaborating on the Women RISE Call for Proposals for Research Teams. The information is provided in the language in which it was submitted.

The information was provided on a voluntary basis and in no way confers any advantages in the evaluation and funding of applications. Users of the tool use it at their own discretion and responsibility.

The table will be updated weekly until July 2022.

We are looking for partners with expertise in the areas of public health, economic, and/or social research with a gender and intercultural approach. Inequality in access to health and education services due to asymmetries caused by economic inequality resulting from the precariousness of employment or, in many cases, the lack of employment during the pandemic, of a large part of the Bolivian population, has contributed to many families living in a situation of extreme poverty. However, it should be noted that many families and communities have been able to overcome the tragedy, so it is interesting to identify the factors that have favored family and community resilience. The aim of this research project is to determine the role of women in family and community resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic, considering socioeconomic and cultural aspects, among others.

Madagascar, une grande île de l'Océan Indien, un pays agricole à la fois riche en biodiversités endémique et culturelle mais aussi parmi les plus pauvres du point de vue économique, avait eu une énorme opportunité de saisir des gros financements internationaux à disposition pour faire face à la pandémie du Covid 19 pour mieux progresser économiquement, en particulier par la transition vers une sécurité sanitaire, alimentaire et nutritionnelle en valorisant ses potentialités agricoles et sa richesse en biodiversité naturelle et culturelle avec l'unicité de sa langue qui devrait faciliter l'approche participative dans les activités de recherche pour une stratégie d'impacts des résultats, pour un vrai développement durable. Un changement transformateur par la recherche action participative est indispensable pour une appropriation des activités de recherche menées avec les acteurs de base, depuis le choix de la thématique de recherche, les méthodologies, résultats et leurs applications continues par ces acteurs de terrain avec les partenaires limitrophes pour de vrais impacts dans la lutte contre la pauvreté et l'insécurité alimentaire.

Hello, we are proposing a project that aims to 1) conduct a rapid situational analysis and needs assessment to understand the effects of COVID-induced changes to the economic landscape on labor market prospects for women living in South Africa, to understand the economic stakeholder needs for the labour market, and to understand the characteristics and lived experiences of women experiencing unemployment or underemployment due to COVID-19 induced labor market changes, including impacts on women’s health, mental health, and overall well-being; 2) conduct a discrete choice experiment to understand the skills needs and support preferences of women seeking employment in the current environment; and 3) to develop and pilot a sustainable skills development program to develop appropriate and relevant job skills among women seeking employment, improve women’s self efficacy for engagement in income generating activities, and improve women’s general employability. Methods involved will include stakeholder interviews and focus groups, quantitative surveys, discrete choice analysis, and a mixed-methods pre-post program evaluation. Our team has expertise in community research; qualitative and quantitative methodology including formative assessments, discrete choice experiments, and program development and evaluation; medicine; psychology; and interdisciplinary organization and government partnerships. We are seeking a Canadian collaborator whose expertise is in economics, business, psychology/social health, or a related field. Thank you!

The overall aim of our study is to assess the barriers and facilitators that women in Kwa Zulu Natal Province, South Africa, face to manage COVID-19 at an individual, social and community level in terms of access to health services and managing their livelihood. In addition, the team will explore responses of HIV infected women to the pandemic and how it affected their access to treatment. We will conduct a mixed-methods study. Data from the qualitative interviews with women will inform the development of the survey, which will be administered to women in the catchment areas of our HIV clinical research sites. The survey results and subsequent focus group discussions will be used to recommend intervention programmes that will improve women’s economic empowerment and health in a COVID-19 recovery phase.

La sécurité alimentaire et la qualité des aliments sont en deçà des normes qualitatives à Madagascar. La pauvreté et le manque d’investissement dans l’agriculture ont réduit la fertilité des sols, ce qui a entraîné un rendement erratique et faible des cultures avec une faible valeur nutritionnelle. Ainsi y-a-t-il un réel besoin d’assurer un niveau soutenu d’un système agricole suffisamment productif et diversifié pour la population malgache, particulièrement en cette période post pandémie Covid 19. Les actions sur la sécurité alimentaire sont indissociables des actions sur la prévention des maladies infectieuses. Cette demande reflète ainsi l’accent mis sur les objectifs du millénaire pour le développement. Les légumineuses offrent différents services bénéfiques dans l'écosystème. L’intégration des légumineuses dans l’alimentation offre différents services écosystémiques : non seulement en tant que plantes fixatrices d'azote à haute teneur en protéines et en minéraux, mais aussi comme plante de couverture pour limiter l'érosion des sols. Madagascar est le berceau de la biodiversité et abrite une grande variété de légumineuses comestibles utilisées dans l'agriculture traditionnelle. Ce projet vise à tester, développer et diffuser des systèmes agricoles qui conduisent à une plus grande sécurité et qualité alimentaires en mettant en œuvre l’important rôle de la femme dans le choix des plats de légumineuses. La question de recherche vérifiable est que l'utilisation croissante des légumineuses avec une biodiversité croissante et avec de petits investissements dans les engrais produira plus d'aliments sains par rapport aux systèmes agricoles conventionnels à faible teneur en légumineuses et à faibles intrants. Cette question de recherche utilisera des mesures de l’apport alimentaire en protéines, zinc et fer pour la population rurale à travers différents systèmes agricoles. Il combinera (1) de nouvelles informations sur la capacité de la biodiversité des légumineuses de Madagascar à améliorer la sécurité alimentaire et (2) l'extension des essais en milieu réel sur la performance supérieure des systèmes de culture soja/riz par rapport aux systèmes conventionnels sans légumineuses tels que les rations courantes de riz/maïs/manioc. La première partie s'appuiera sur l'inventaire de la biodiversité actuelle des légumineuses comestibles et non comestibles dans les systèmes agricoles de Madagascar en tenant compte de leur rôle dans la nutrition humaine et dans l'agronomie (lutte contre l'érosion/impact sur les maladies). Il utilisera des questionnaires et de nouvelles mesures de l'apport alimentaire en nutriments, en portant une attention particulière aux facteurs antinutritionnels potentiellement présents dans les légumineuses exotiques. La deuxième partie sera basée sur l'extension des essais en milieu réel de la rotation riz/soja pour lesquels nous avons précédemment montré des augmentations de rendement fabuleuses à de faibles doses d'engrais phosphaté, l'élément nutritif limitant. Il sera fait référence au manioc/maïs/riz à faibles intrants. Pour la première fois, nous allons comparer les apports alimentaires en nutriments des agriculteurs de ces systèmes en mettant en exergue l’important rôle des femmes et des jeunes. Le résultat attendu apportera de nouvelles informations et connaissances sur le rôle des légumineuses dans la sécurité alimentaire et une diffusion de ces connaissances aux agricultrices et agriculteurs.

It has endeavoured to continually generate evidence through its past and current research work on the status, challenges and possible solutions for women HBWs on this issue (eg: Impact of COVID-19 studies, Impact of Climate change, Childcare and its increasing burden on women, and more). It looks forward to working with a partner with core expertise and interest in action research on women’s health in the developing world, in particular in, South Asia. Inputs should include contributions to design of the action research project to test suitable strategies in strengthening women’s health for improved work ability, identifying suitable health indicators to monitor for the purpose, contribute to design of mid-term assessment strategy especially for health related indicators, and partner with HNSA throughout the research period as a specialised agency on women’s health.

La propuesta de investigación se centra en considerar los procesos de salud-enfermedad-atención de la salud de las mujeres migrantes quechuas provenientes de Bolivia en la ciudad de Comodoro Rivadavia de la Patagonia Argentina. En trabajos previos, desde una mirada intercultural, hemos reconocido una serie de tensiones de estas mujeres con el sistema de salud atendiendo a los procesos de memoria y territorialización de las mismas en la ciudad receptora. De aquí es que nos interesamos en indagar cómo estas mujeres acuden a diferentes lógicas médicas para superar sus dolencias y las de sus familias. En este sentido consideramos que atender al pluralismo médico que ponen en práctica nos permitirá generar instancias productivas para el acceso a la salud de las mujeres migrantes andinas en Comodoro Rivadavia.
