Dr Cheboi's research adopts a participatory approach to meaningfully engage women, men, and youth at both household and community levels, ensuring inclusive involvement in decision-making and equitable control over resources. Tailored climate-smart agriculture interventions are designed to address the unique skills, resources, and opportunities of each gender group, recognising that targeted, context-sensitive support is essential for sustainable impact.
A mixed-methods approach encompassing field visits, questionnaires, interviews, and focus group discussions (FGDs) is employed to identify gender-specific needs and catalyse adoption processes. By fostering inclusive and equitable participation, the project empowers women and other marginalised groups, ensuring their meaningful involvement in accessing, managing, and making informed decisions on food choices. Ultimately, this approach strengthens community resilience, advances food security, and contributes to a more just and sustainable agricultural transformation.
