Synopsis (short abstract) National gender profile of agriculture and rural livelihoods: the Republic of Moldova reflects FAO’s commitment to promoting gender equality, while integrating a gender perspective into its operations. The report focuses on the intersections of gender, agriculture and rural development, and presents a snapshot of critical gender-based inequalities and their consequences for agricultural production and rural livelihoods in the Republic of Moldova. A picture of significant gender gaps in terms of the rural population’s access to educational and employment opportunities and social services is presented. In the area of agricultural production, women have much more limited access to and control over vital resources, including land, extension and advisory services and irrigation. The assessment includes recommendations on enhancing agriculture and developing rural communities with a gender-sensitive perspective, taking into consideration gender roles and differences between women and men in access to productive resources, inputs and information.

    FAO’s first Country Gender Assessment for Montenegro explores the status of women and men in agriculture and rural development, identifying persistent gender gaps and opportunities to advance equality in agrifood systems. Despite progress in aligning national legislation with international and EU standards, rural women remain underrepresented among landowners and decision-makers and face limited access to resources, finance, and training. The assessment highlights key trends and challenges and provides a basis for integrating gender perspectives into FAO programmes and national policies, supporting more inclusive and gender-responsive rural development.
