How do we pave an equal and inclusive path to Net Zero Agriculture?
In the face of environmental challenges and climate risk, technological interventions are being deployed to meet food security challenges – but how does this intersect with ideas and practices of social inclusivity in the agricultural sector? For instance, we know that the way farmers and farms are operating is changing with new technology and innovation, some of which require kinds and levels of education often denied to women. How has the role of women in agriculture changed with new practices, if at all? This panel will discuss ways in which sustainable development initiatives in agriculture could be more inclusive and equitable for all.
