One focal area of the PlantwisePlus programme is supporting equitable access to agricultural extension advice and technologies.

To help achieve this, in Ghana the programme has been implementing social and behaviour communication approaches to change attitudes and societal norms around women’s roles in agricultural work. An assessment to gauge the early impacts of these measures was conducted by CABI between December 2023 and January 2024.

This study brief highlights the positive outcomes and changes that have arisen following PlantwisePlus interventions, the remaining challenges and barriers, and recommendations for future activities.
