About the Book
Gender, Food Security and Rural Livelihoods, edited by Maithreyi Krishnaraj, is a comprehensive scholarly work that examines the critical role of women in agriculture, food systems, and rural economies in India. The book brings together contributions from researchers and experts to explore how gender dynamics influence access to resources, food production, and livelihood opportunities.
The volume highlights the challenges faced by women in rural areas, including limited land rights, unequal access to credit and technology, and the burden of unpaid labor. It also analyzes how these factors affect food security at both household and community levels.
Through case studies and analytical essays, the book provides insights into policy frameworks, development initiatives, and grassroots movements aimed at improving women’s participation and empowerment in rural livelihoods. It emphasizes the importance of gender-sensitive approaches in addressing poverty, hunger, and sustainable development.
Gender, Food Security and Rural Livelihoods is an essential resource for students, researchers, policymakers, and readers interested in gender studies, rural development, and food security issues.
