dc.descriptionA report of the proceedings of the expert consultation on the above theme, which was held at the University of the Philippines Los Banos, Laguna, Philippines from 10 to 13 September 2001. There is growing empirical evidence of the key role of rural women in agrobiodiversity conservation for food security in developing countries. Yet, there is still not adequate understanding of women’s contribution in this field. The consultation involved experts working on community-level projects supporting wo men’s participation in agrobiodiversity conservation as well as resource persons who offered critical perspectives on the subject. The document includes summaries of the country case studies and the discussions as well as the recommendations that emerged from the exercise to promote women’s role in agrobiodiversity conservation. These focus on strategies to strengthen institutional partnerships among governments, research organizations, non-governmental organizations and communities, as well as research, development and extension interventions to support the role of rural women as local agrobiodiversity managers for food security.
