Markets, institutions and the Importance of women's economic roles
1995
Women, Population and the Environment: Markets, Institutions and the Importance of Women’s Economic Roles argues that, while a reproductive rights approach to population planning can be an important component of environmental protection strategies, more attention must be paid to the relatively neglected role of market and policy failures that affect women as agriculturalists, economic actors and consumers of natural resources.
For over thirty years, ICRW has examined the role of women in increasing agricultural production and sustainably managing natural resources. These historic publications present ICRW’s groundbreaking research and analysis in examining the role of women as economic agents of change in agriculture systems.
