Project presentation
In France, women represent only one quarter of farm managers and remain largely invisible within the agricultural sector. In response to discrimination and structural barriers—including access to land, training, and work-life balance—the CIVAM Network and FADEAR have joined forces to better recognize and promote women’s contributions to the agroecological transition.
The project aims to strengthen women-only farmer groups, encourage the sharing of experiences and tools between networks, and raise awareness of gender equality within agricultural education institutions. Through the creation of a toolbox, dedicated training sessions, and peer exchange days, the initiative seeks to consolidate women’s place in agriculture and support their agency in a sector undergoing profound transformation.
