Rural
women are active agents of economic and social change and environmental
protection who are, in many ways and to various degrees, constrained in their
roles as farmers, producers, investors, caregivers and consumers. They play
crucial roles ensuring food and nutrition security, eradicating rural poverty
and improving the well-being of their families yet continue to face serious
challenges as a result of gender-based stereotypes and discrimination that deny
them equitable access to opportunities, resources, assets and services.
