Book excerpt: This abstract outlines the objectives of an assessment conducted by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nation in Palau. The assessment identified three main challenges: firstly, the need to acknowledge and reflect the contributions of women to household and rural economies in policies, strategies, plans and programs. Secondly, gender inequalities limit the capacity of women in Palau to develop their potential. Finally, the recognition of gender equality as a driver to sustainable development is beginning to be incorporated into public policies, strategies, plans and programs. These findings highlight the importance of addressing these challenges in order to achieve greater gender equality and empowerment for rural women in Palau.

This book was released on 2019-10-18 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Country gender assessment of agriculture and the rural sector provides in-depth insights into the gendered dimensions of agriculture and rural development in Fiji. The policy environment in rural sector ministries is supportive of gender mainstreaming, with clear paths to link policy direction on gender equality to programmes. Recommendations are formulated to progressively advance gender equality and support the empowerment of rural women through policy. In the short term, recommendations are oriented toward community programming that is more equitable, practical and beneficial for women. Developing infrastructure to reduce women’s workloads and facilitate their ability to engage in the cash economy could enhance women’s economic opportunities and contribute to improved family welfare. Promoting the use of radio, texts and social media to allow women to share information on weather, prices, economic opportunities and savings and banking can empower women to make more informed decisions about their activities. Building the gender analysis capacity of civil society organizations (CSOs) working in rural sectors on climate change, disaster management and sustainable development will support the engagement of women in community-based decision making. To address gender inequalities in the rural sector and support the empowerment of rural women, a set of concrete recommendations is given. These range from promotion of policy research and analysis to inform policies and strategic planning on gender equality and rural women’s empowerment in ARD to putting in place concrete measures for the improvement of rural women’s access to services, technology, finance, markets and resources.

This book was released on 2022-05-19 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National gender profile of agriculture and rural livelihoods: the Republic of Moldova reflects FAO’s commitment to promoting gender equality, while integrating a gender perspective into its operations. The report focuses on the intersections of gender, agriculture and rural development, and presents a snapshot of critical gender-based inequalities and their consequences for agricultural production and rural livelihoods in the Republic of Moldova. A picture of significant gender gaps in terms of the rural population’s access to educational and employment opportunities and social services is presented. In the area of agricultural production, women have much more limited access to and control over vital resources, including land, extension and advisory services and irrigation. The assessment includes recommendations on enhancing agriculture and developing rural communities with a gender-sensitive perspective, taking into consideration gender roles and differences between women and men in access to productive resources, inputs and information.

This book was released on 2021-09-16 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gaps between policy and implementation, and limited availability of sex disaggregated data and gender-sensitive indicators to inform sound policies and budgets have kept women marginalized in many sectors. No baselines mean no measurement of progress in effectively implementing the array of commitments towards gender equality and women’s empowerment in agriculture, food security and nutrition, rural development and management of natural resources. This report reveals gender disparities in access to critical agriculture and rural resources, knowledge, opportunities, services and markets. It explores the existing gender relations and gaps in the various sub sectors of agriculture, and their possible causes and impact on food and nutrition security, and makes policy recommendations to address them.

Book Synopsis Egyptian Women's Agriculture Contribution by : Noha El Khorazaty

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Women's contribution to the agriculture sector in developing countries is undeniable, yet they do not have equal access to the resources and opportunities they need to be more productive. Sustainable development entails inclusive and effective management of natural resources, this entails gender equity in agriculture. Bridging the gender gap in agriculture far exceeds the benefits of the individual. According to the latest estimates bridging the yield gap in agricultural productivity could possibly decrease the numbers of undernourished people in the world by around 100 - 140 million people. Sustainable agriculture development and gender equity necessitate policy interventions targeting the gender gap in agriculture resources. However, within the Egyptian national context, not enough research has been dedicated to quantifying and analyzing the gender gap in agriculture in Egypt. This thesis seeks to statistically analyze gender inequalities that constrain women's roles in agriculture and food production, and undermine their capacity to contribute to the food and nutrition security in Egypt. The contribution of women in agricultural production is conceptualized in to three separate, but complementary analytical objectives. Objective (A), reveals that the real impact of rural females' subsistence agriculture labor on rural household food security exceeds that of rural males. Investigating rural females' subsistence agriculture labor uncovers the actual contribution of Egyptian rural women to rural community sustainability and highlight their capacity for agricultural production. Objective (B) identifies the demographic and institutional differences between male and female agriculture labor. This objective provides evidence to the hypothesis that agriculture is becoming increasingly feminized within the Egyptian national context. Objective (C) estimates the yield gap between male-headed and female-headed households (as closest available proxy to agricultural autonomy), estimated by net earnings per unit generated from principal agricultural assets, namely corps cultivation and livestock. Additionally, the agriculture resources gap is examined based on the framework of agricultural resources suggested by the FAO (2011). Under this objective the data provides evidence to the efficiency of female-headed households in agricultural production despite their limited resources compared to male-headed households. Finally, the findings of the study will lead to recommending a set of essential principles to promote inclusivity and gender-equity in agricultural development programs in Egypt.

A collaborative agreement between FAO colleagues and the International Training Centre of the International Labour Organization (ITCILO) brought in experts in gender equality and results-based management to develop this strategy.
Book Synopsis Women in fisheries in the Mediterranean and Black Sea region: roles, challenges and opportunities by : Merayo, E.
Download or read book Women in fisheries in the Mediterranean and Black Sea region: roles, challenges and opportunities written by Merayo, E. and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2024-03-07 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women play active roles throughout the fisheries value chain in the Mediterranean and the Black Sea, including participating in pre-harvest activities like vessel and gear construction and maintenance, harvest activities both on board fishing vessels and from shore, and post-harvest activities such as sorting, cleaning, processing and marketing the catch, as well as in activities associated with running the fishing business, such as bookkeeping. Furthermore, women are actively engaged throughout the region in fisheries research and fisheries administrations. Despite the wide and varied roles played by women in fisheries, their contributions to the sector are often not captured in official statistics and can therefore go unrecognized, reinforcing existing gender inequalities and potentially leading to inadvertent discrimination. At the same time, a lack of consideration of women working in the sector can also mean that their knowledge and experience is overlooked and not sufficiently profited from. Recognizing the importance of taking the roles, needs and experiences of women into account when addressing social, economic and environmental issues related to the fishing sector, this study aims at narrowing research gaps in the region regarding gender and fisheries, as well as supporting the commitments of Mediterranean and Black Sea countries to promoting gender equality.
