The Women's Empowerment in Agriculture Index (WEAI) is the first comprehensive and standardized measure of women’s empowerment and inclusion in the agricultural sector. WEAI is being used in the monitoring and evaluation of USAID’s Feed the Future Initiative in 19 countries. As of August 2016, at least 57 external organizations had used the WEAI in 35 countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
This CGIAR Research Program on Policies, Institutions, and Markets Outcome Note describes the life of the WEAI since its launch in 2012, reflecting on lessons learned and key research outputs based on WEAI data.
