Does Women's Time Matter? A Critical Reflection on Time Use in Agriculture-Nutrition Research

This webinar addressed an important question for economic development in rural areas of low- and middle-income countries: if agriculture is to promote nutrition, do we need to take women’s time into account? LCIRAH and the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) recently funded a systematic review study aimed at understanding the role of time use in the agriculture-nutrition pathways. Sara Stevano presented and discussed the rationale and key findings of the systematic review, and critically reflected on how time use data is important for understanding the linkages between agriculture and nutrition.
