International Day of Women and Girls in Science 2022 To achieve full and equal access to and participation in science for women and girls, and further achieve gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls, the United Nations General Assembly declared 11 February as the International Day of Women and Girls in Science in 2015. [...] We are inviting individual women who lead farms, work on the farm and/or otherwise contribute to the success of the farm to participate in the qualitative phase of the research project. [...] This involves a series of one-on-one interviews to better understand their roles, experiences, motivations, goals, and aspirations within the farm and the range of contributions and recognition to inform a path forward to meet the unique needs of this underrepresented group. [...] The gender division of labour in the agriculture sector depends upon the specific agricultural commodity and the various stages of the value chain. [...] Women Deliver is mobilizing at CSW66, the G7, and COP27, alongside our partners in the SRHR and Climate Justice Coalition, to ensure that the leaders of today and tomorrow meaningfully address the linkages between climate change, SRHR, and gender equality.
