Resumen
Descripción
Agrifood systems are vital for women’s livelihoods, employing millions worldwide (FAO, 2023). Yet, women’s contributions often go unnoticed, with many working in informal, part-time, low-skilled, and labor-intensive roles. Women face limited access to resources and are excluded from critical decision-making processes, making them more vulnerable. Closing gender gaps in agrifood systems results in sustained improvements in the well-being of women, their families, and entire communities. To make meaningful progress, it is crucial to collect high-quality, sex-disaggregated data. Data, along with robust qualitative and quantitative gender research, are essential to inform policy makers and improve the design and effectiveness of policies that promote gender equality and transform agrifood systems.
