Food security should be a people's issue, not a women's issue
How does this play into food security? According to research done by the Mary Robinson Foundation - Climate Justice (MRFCJ), food security is a women's issue. In Uganda, men make the money, but women feed the family. It's women who are out plowing the fields, cooking meals for their families, adapting practices to deal with climate change, caring for livestock, and the list goes on.
