Food waste and women's labor: Critical role for sustainable food systems

According to FAO and UNEP data, 13.2% of global food is lost in the supply chain, while unconsumed food accounts for 8-10% of greenhouse gas emissions. It is emphasized that reducing food waste is an integral part of climate action. It is stated that small-scale farmers play an important role in food production on a global scale and 40% of this workforce is women. 92% of women working in the agricultural sector in Türkiye are in unregistered employment, and the climate crisis disproportionately affects the income and productivity of women farmers. Samandağ Women's Solidarity Association President Hülya Rencüzoğulları and FAO Türkiye Deputy Representative Dr. Ayşegül Selışık says that increasing the visibility of women's roles in food production, processing and consumption and their greater representation in decision-making mechanisms will make food systems more resilient and sustainable.
