Strengthening Climate Resilience of Women in Agriculture and Business: A Study on Climate-Resilient, Climate-Smart and Environmentally Friendly Agricultural Practices in Georgia
The research, “Strengthening Climate Resilience of Women in Agriculture and Business: A Study on Climate-Resilient, Climate-Smart and Environmentally Friendly Agricultural Practices in Georgia,” examines the differentiated impacts of climate change on women farmers and women owners of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Georgia’s agricultural sector. It assesses the challenges women face, identifies existing adaptation strategies, and explores opportunities to strengthen the adoption of climate-resilient, climate-smart and environmentally friendly agricultural practices. Particular attention is given to the heightened climate risks faced by rural women, who may have limited access to land, finance, technology and decision-making processes.
The research was conducted by the Georgian Farmers’ Association (GFA) under UN Women’s Gender in Disaster Risk Reduction (GDRR) Project, with the support of the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC).
