Gender and Power in Rural Colombia and Honduras



My doctoral dissertation contributes to women's empowerment and gendered- intra-household decision-making in two Latin American countries. 
  • Colombia: I understand how the resources provided by an entrepreneurship development program affect rural women's agency in the departments of Cauca and Caquetá.
  • Honduras: I understand women's participation in intra-household decisions and their desire to participate in those decisions among small-scale cashew producers.
