Agriculture plays a key role on the African Continent. It is the biggest sector employer, directly supporting 90% of livelihoods and accounting for up to a quarter of the Continent’s total GDP.
The sector also accounts for the work done by the majority of the population, where 80% of this farming is done by smallholders many of whom are women. As such, the status and role of women on the African Continent is key to any gains that the agricultural sector intends to make on the Continent.
Our conversation today will explore the question: Where does The AfCFTA Meet African Women in Agriculture? with our guest Dr. Njoki Ngumi who authored a paper exploring the AfCFTA and feminist reflections, insights and strategies to consider when looking at the intersection of agriculture and trade.
The show is made possible by financial support from the Nawi Collective.
