FAO report: Albania’s rural women face an uphill climb

The report, launched at a press conference at the Ministry of Agriculture, Rural Development and Water Administration, gives a comprehensive overview of the difficulties faced by rural women in Albania. The analysis is supported by data, and followed up by a set of recommended actions for improving the situation. For government, for example, the report outlines policy options and possible institutional arrangements.

“Traditional gender roles are more entrenched in rural communities, and gender inequalities have remained socially accepted,” said Raimund Jehle, FAO Representative to Albania and Regional Strategic Programmes Coordinator for Europe and Central Asia.
