Gender, water and agriculture
Assessing the nexus in Egypt
2022

Also available in:

No results found.

The economic contribution of women to agricultural and irrigation activities and to the livelihoods, well-being and food security of families and communities is often unrecognized, invisible and mostly undervalued. Moreover, the role of women in fetching, preserving and managing productive and non-productive water often goes unrecognized and understudied. Hence, this assessment aims to shed light on the different contributions and benefits of women and men in relation to agricultural roles, responsibilities and resources, focusing mainly on productive agricultural resources, including water, to inform more efficient, equitable and gender-responsive programmes in the future.

Water pricing is being increasingly recognized as a key instrument for improved water allocation, better conservation and quality preservation. It induces better demand management of water resources and is seen by many as the ultimate solution in water-deficit areas where supply is limited or cannot be augmented.
