Women and Agriculture in Kerala State: Collective responses by Kudumbashree during the COVID-19 pandemic -Resmi P Bhaskaran and Rajesh Ravi

- Focus on the Global South, dated 19 September, 2022

Three years into the pandemic, the report titled 'Women and Agriculture in Kerala State' assesses the track record of the Indian state of Kerala in addressing the health and livelihood challenges during the peak crisis period. The authors of the report elaborate on how the Government of Kerala effectively used the wide network of its women’s empowerment project – The Kudumbashree – to enhance livelihoods especially focussing on farming and livelihood activities. They argue that this gender sensitive approach helped reduce food insecurity and facilitated employment especially by increasing the women work participation rate.
