dc.descriptionEmpowerment of women is considered to be a critical step towards poverty reduction. In addition, empowering women is part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals (specifically SDG5). Social protection programs such as cash transfers or public works are policy instruments that help rural food insecure households to cope and gradually transition out of poverty. They also have the potential to empower women through several pathways. In this report, we analyze women’s agency and decision-making power, which are a specific sub-domain of women’s empowerment, in the context of the Integrated Nutrition Social Cash Transfer (IN-SCT) pilot in Ethiopia. This paper is being published in the context of a partnership between FAO, IFAD and the Universidad de los Andes (UNIANDES) and its Centro de Estudios en Desarrollo Económico (CEDE) based in Bogotá, Colombia.
