Tbilisi. Gender, Agriculture and Rural Development in Georgia – new gender assessment report was introduced by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) with the support of the European Union and Austrian Development Cooperation.
Breeding livestock, producing crops and household goods, fetching water and firewood, housework, cooking for family, looking after children, the elderly and sick members of the family – this is the short list of the rural women’s obligations in Georgia. However, women’s contribution to the agricultural production remains invisible and under-recognized according to the report.
