Its purpose is to identify constraints and increase understanding between women, agriculture, empowerment, and food security. In turn, this will help understand which women are disempowered and how their autonomy and decision-making can be addressed in order to reach gender equity in production, access to resources, income, leadership, and workload.text/plainen-USIn CopyrightRural developmentWomenLocal governanceLeadership developmentEmpowermentAccess to resourcesFive domains of empowerment5deGender parity indexGpiWeaiGovernanceAbstractCopyright 2012 International Food Policy Research Institute.
