Women for the Future of Agriculture
Women are key contributors to the improvement of various issues in the areas of farming, agriculture, forestry and the environment. Yet their contribution and relevance of it is often overlooked. It is evident that agriculture is still a sector where women’s representation lags, yet it is expected that the green transition will bring more women into the sector.
This year’s edition comes at a particularly meaningful moment, as the United Nations has declared 2026 the International Year of the Woman Farmer (IYWF 2026), highlighting the essential, and often under-recognised, roles women play across agrifood systems, from production to policy and trade.
In line with ELO’s commitment to promoting a sustainable and prosperous countryside through diverse perspectives, this campaign aims to amplify women’s voices, experiences and practical solutions that contribute to more resilient food systems.
