Beekeeping in Ethiopia
• Employs up to 2 million people
• Is largely a male-dominated occupation
• Generally relies on traditional hives which only produce small amounts of low quality honey
Women farmers in Ethiopia
• Play an active role in family-based agriculture; female-headed households make up 21 per cent of all households
• Often lack access to seeds and farming inputs, land, finance, market, technology and decision-making power
• Often lack access to platforms or opportunities to engage in family and community decision making
Your support can enable women farmers and marginalised smallholder producers to increase productivity by a staggering 300% through the development of an inclusive and sustainable honey value chain.
