@un-ecosoc.bsky.social#RuralWomen play a crucial role in building a more just and sustainable world! 🌍
We must:
🗣️ Champion their rights, livelihoods & leadership
💲 Boost rural investments
❌ End discriminatory laws & practices
Empowering rural women benefits us all! 💪 #Beijing30 @unwomen.bsky.social
@learningpartnership.orgThis International Day of Rural Women, during the International Year of the Woman Farmer, we recognize rural women for the work they do to sustain their communities, and we call for climate action that reflects their knowledge, priorities, and power.
@logcabinmuseum.bsky.socialDespite their contributions, #RuralWomen often faced systemic barriers incl land rights & credit.
However, we have compelling local tales of the courage, resilience, & determination of Canadian women: farmers, teachers, berrypickers, seamstresses, Postmistresses, telephone operators, homemakers, +.
@besnet.worldThe field is the lab, and the records go back generations.
#RuralWomen farmers track flowering times, late rains and which seeds survive a dry year. That knowledge helps communities adapt as the climate shifts, and it belongs alongside science in climate and biodiversity decisions. 🌾
@aausa.bsky.socialToday is the International Day of Rural Women, and 2026 is the UN’s International Year of the Woman Farmer.
Our new policy brief looks at GAFSP projects in seven countries: where women’s leadership is growing and where gaps remain.

@berkeleyair.bsky.socialKenyan research showed that #ruralwomen value the flexibility that #cleancooking tech offers https://tinyurl.com/mphtcrj9 Faster cooking times, fewer woodfuel collection trips, or cooking in the field help them maximize productivity and leisure. They deserve no less! #InternationalDayOfRuralWomen
@besnet.world#DidYouKnow that Target 23 of the #KMGBF recognizes women’s equal rights to land?
But laws haven’t caught up: 59% of 84 countries reviewed by FAO offer women little to no legal land rights.
It’s time to invest in #RuralWomen and remove barriers to their economic agency & environmental leadership.
@wougnet.bsky.socialOn #InternationalDayOfRuralWomen, we celebrate the women sustaining communities and livelihoods.
At WOUGNET, we're working to bridge the digital divide so rural women can access information, technology and economic opportunities.

@aeidl.bsky.social👩🌾👩💼👩🔬 #WomenShapeRuralFutures
#RuralWomen are at the heart of Europe’s communities, but inequalities remain.
In 2023, 69.7% of rural women were employed vs 81% of men, an 11.3-point #gender gap.
On this #InternationalDayOfRuralWomen, we are giving rural women the floor.
@besnet.world🌾 #RuralWomen don’t just work the land. They read it, heal it and hand it on.
Their knowledge of seeds, seasons and the land itself is part of how rural communities feed themselves and adapt when conditions change.
We honour their work and their rights to shape a resilient future. 🌱
