Rapid Evidence Assessment on Women’s Empowerment Interventions within the Food System: a meta-analysis

Abstract

This is a preprint.

Women’s empowerment interventions represent a key opportunity to improve nutrition-related outcomes. Still, cross-contextual evidence on the factors that cause poorer nutrition outcomes for women and girls and how women’s empowerment can improve nutrition outcomes is scant.

The objective was to rapidly synthesise the available evidence regarding the impacts of interventions that attempt to empower women and/or girls to access, participate in and take control of components of the food system.
