Description
The aim of this project is to demonstrate the importance of associativity as a strategy to improve the competitiveness of women in small-scale agriculture (WSSA) in APEC economies to enhance their inclusion in the market and to influence the innovation and the consolidation of competitive advantages. This report provides an overview of common challenges and policies, plans and interventions implemented by economies based on a pre-workshop virtual survey. Likewise, it presents the main findings and conclusions of the in-person Workshop held on 13 August 2024 in the city of Trujillo, Peru, with the objective of serving as a decision-making tool in policy formulation and future interventions concerning the associative capacities of women in small-scale agriculture for production, trade, and business entrepreneurship.
