Stockholm Environment Institute: “Beyond a Seat at the Table”.

_{12 Pages, 202}4

This report was developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) Asia Center, commissioned by CARE France under its collaboration with Fondation L’Oréal, as part of the She Grows the Future program. The initiative supports women working in agriculture in Ecuador, India, Madagascar, and Vietnam, with the goal of strengthening their voice in community life while improving access to climate-resilient farming practices. The report emphasizes that improving participation is not just about increasing attendance or offering training. It also requires changes in community attitudes, greater support for caregiving responsibilities, and stronger policies that include different voices in decision-making processes. 

The following four comics were created for SEI , intended for rural communities based in Lai Châu, Vietnam who speak various regional dialects, rather than Vietnamese or English. The purpose of these comics were to visually inform communities how important it is that both men and women attend community meetings to discuss environmental and social conflict, rather than solely men engaging in these important discussions. The four comics were physically distributed within the relevant communities.
