Women’s Empowerment in Beyond-Production Activities

Women engage in a variety of agricultural roles across the value chain. Many approaches, promising practices, and tools to support women’s empowerment in production have emerged in recent years. However, much less is known about women’s engagement, benefit, and empowerment in beyond-production activities such as input and service provision, marketing, agro-processing, and retail.

In this webinar, Agrilinks and the Feed the Future Advancing Women’s Empowerment (AWE) Program will share findings from a landscape analysis conducted by the Feed the Future Advancing Women’s Empowerment (AWE) program that examines women’s empowerment in beyond-production activities.

First, they will explore common approaches to empowering women in beyond-production activities. Then, they’ll do a deep dive into concrete ways to collect and use data to understand and implement good practices in women’s empowerment in beyond-production.

This discussion, led by AWE consortium member ACDI/VOCA, will be followed by a Q&A session during which the audience will have an opportunity to ask questions about women’s empowerment in beyond-production activities.
