This proportion ranges from about 20% in Latin America to at least 50% in East and South East Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, although this proportion varies between countries and regions. In most developing regions, agriculture is the main source of revenue for rural women.

Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetTrabajadores migrantes en la industria bananera 2017The United Nations International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of all Migrant Workers and Members of their Families (1990) defines a migrant worker as “a person who is engaged or has been engaged in a remunerated activity in a state of which he or she is not a national”. This definition includes temporary migrant workers (e.g. seasonal workers in agriculture) and those coming from a different part of the same country. According to recent ILO estimates, there are 150.3 million migran t workers in the world, of which 48 percent are women. However, in the banana industry migrant workers are predominantly male. This is due to their relative ability to travel according to family responsibilities, and also because of gender discrimination in employment opportunities for women in the industry.
