Helpers, employees, and owners: Opportunities for women’s empowerment in agricultural value chains por Twyman, Jennifer, Moreno, Manuel F., Claros Trujillo, Luisa María, Wiegel, Jennifer Rebecca, Suazo, Carlos

“…However, there are few studies that have compared women’s empowerment in different value chains or across different nodes of value chains or by women’s roles in them for Latin America. In this study we examine different indicators of women’s empowerment between the production and processing nodes of two agricultural value chains - cashew and dairy - to better understand if/how women’s participation in value chains is related to their empowerment. …”
