Strengthening women’s voices through collective organizations in India

In India, women play a pivotal role in driving change in the agriculture sector. In the first of three videos on "Women and Agroecology," we look at how women’s organizations cultivate collaboration. This episode explores the impact of women-led initiatives in promoting sustainable agriculture and fostering resilience in Andhra Pradesh in southern India.

Vasantha Kumari has been a farmer all her life. She recently made the transition to natural farming and is now promoting nature-positive and agroecological farming practices. 

Through collective action and shared knowledge, women like Kumari are addressing critical challenges such as climate change, land degradation and rural poverty.

The "Women and Agroecology" video series aims to celebrate their achievements, amplify their voices, and inspire others to support sustainable agriculture.
