? Rural women and family farmers are the protagonists of our food system but still face structural barriers.
On the occasion of International Women’s Day, the Rural Women in Action Network launches the campaign “Rural Women in Action: Building a Sustainable Future,” aiming to highlight their key role in transforming food systems, environmental sustainability, and rural development.
Rural women represent almost half of the labor force in agriculture, yet they face limitations in access to land, financing, and decision-making participation. The campaign emphasizes the need for inclusive public policies to ensure their economic autonomy and equity in family farming.
Key messages:
? Land and resources for rural women
? Valuing the work of women family farmers
? Greater participation in decision-making
? Access to technology and co-innovation for them
? Equity in climate action
? It’s time to act
? Share this campaign and amplify the voice of rural women and family farmers.
? Promote equity policies in family farming.
? Support initiatives for access to land and financing for women farmers.
? Promote their leadership in decision-making.
? Because without rural women, there is no sustainable future. #8M #RuralWomenInAction #BuildingASustainableFuture
