Agriculture plays a key role on the African Continent. It is the biggest sector employer, directly supporting 90% of livelihoods and accounting for up to a quarter of the Continent’s total GDP. The sector also accounts for the work done by the majority of the population, where 80% of this farming is done by smallholders many of whom are women. As such, the status and role of women on the African Continent is key to any gains that the agricultural sector intends to make...

This episode explores a feminist/human rights based approach towards the AfCFTA and the issue of ...
