Abstract

Many women have taken on new roles in agricultural production due to significant male outmigration from many rural areas for work in neighbouring countries and the Gulf states. The main outcome of the research is a book entitled Gender Research in Natural Resource Management: Building Capacities in the Middle East and North Africa. Results indicate that gendered research on agriculture and Environment and Natural Resource Management (ENRM) needs to be better documented and at larger scale to inform policy development, and research needs to explore power relationships, decision-making processes and social institutions.
