Although there is increasing attention being paid to women as both participants and beneficiaries of economic development, there continues to be relatively little large-sample survey data available for gender analysis, particularly in the agriculture sector.

Access to and rights over resources, including water, play a key role in agricultural production and the other types of productive activities that can be undertaken by the household.

In partnership with International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) and financially supported by REACH, this project aims to explore intrahousehold differences in individual water access; how this is linked to water allocation in the household’s productive activities; and how they are associated with who controls output and income earned.
