12/ Let's discuss!
What do you think about these findings? How can social protection systems be improved to address gender disparities? 🤝

10/ Policy Recommendations:
✅ Design gender-sensitive social protection programs.
✅ Prioritize interventions that:
Enhance asset ownership.
Improve market access.
Strengthen women’s social networks.
Encourage income diversification.

9/ Mixed results for cash transfers:
💡 Informal cash transfers are highly effective, especially for female-headed households.
❌ Formal cash transfers, however, show a negative correlation with FCS—except for male-headed households during violent conflict.

8/ Income diversification is key:
🌾 Especially during conflict, diverse income sources significantly improve FCS for female-headed households.

7/ Social networks play a role:
👩🌾 Women’s group memberships boost FCS for female-headed households.
🚫 However, women do NOT benefit as much from broader social networks during shocks.
👨🌾 Male-headed households benefit from ALL types of networks.

6/ Market access is critical:
📉 Longer distances to agricultural markets = lower FCS.
🔍 This effect is sharper for male-headed households.

5/ Assets matter!
🔑 Owning productive & non-productive assets improves FCS for all households.
🌟 Female-headed households see even greater benefits.

4/ Key Findings:
1️⃣ Climate shocks (e.g., floods, droughts) did NOT significantly affect food consumption scores (FCS).
2️⃣ Violent conflict caused a substantial drop in FCS.
Conflict = major driver of food insecurity.

3/ Using novel survey data from 7,908 rural households across 14 Sudanese states, we examine:
1️⃣ How food insecurity relates to climate & conflict shocks.
2️⃣ Gendered differences in these impacts.
3️⃣ Mechanisms that mitigate these effects.

2/ Why it matters:
Climate change and conflict are among the biggest threats to human welfare. Yet, their gendered impacts on food security are poorly understood.
And what role can social protection play in reducing these impacts? 🤔

We find no significant effect on mothers' labor market behavior, even for single mothers.
Policymakers, take note: Subsidies alone may not overcome behavioral inertia in developing economies.
