Effects of women’s empowerment interventions in food systems
"Key messages - Available evidence indicates that women’s empowerment interventions can improve food security as well as food affordability and/or availability. Effects on diet quality and adequacy are smaller; however, the evidence is limited so this is not conclusive. - Qualitative evidence suggests that multi-component interventions that combine behavior change with asset transfers are more sustainable than single-focus interventions. - Gender-transformative approaches that consider gender and social norms and target men to expand women’s social roles may allow women to pursue more livelihoods options outside of the home.
