Provide financial support for agricultural projects that are managed by women such as:

  • providing money for buying and maintaining machinery,
  • delegate financial advisers who will ensure the better management of finances on their projects and
  • help them to save for the future and provide the insurance for the farm as a whole.

Nothing much has been done to promote sustainability in women’s use of energy, especially in the rural areas. I grew up in a village and I still spend most of my weekends at the village. Women from my village spend most of their time collecting wood, dung, etc for cooking. As much as electricity is so expensive, there are no means for making it cheaper for poor people. I feel that women (especially those in rural areas) who can greatly contribute to this discussion are not part of these forums and if possible, we should find a way of making them to be part of this discussion.
