Female farmers: in search of equal opportunities.
According to a United Nations report, women, on average, earn 23% less than men globally. The female workforce is mostly concentrated in jobs with low salaries or skills, with greater job insecurity and low protagonism in decision-making. The enormous wage gap with the exploitation that it entails, extends to innumerable fields. In Côte d'Ivoire, for example, where they carry out 68% of the work of the cocoa industry, women have fewer rights than men, receive less pay and own less land. Clearly, it would be absurd to perpetuate these conditions of inequality. Working women must earn a living income.
