Empowering Women in the Seaweed Industry
The World Bank is advocating for a 'she-weed revolution' to involve more coastal communities, particularly women in sub-Saharan and Latin America, in the seaweed industry. Women's involvement in natural resource management can reduce poverty in households. The focus is not only on women as primary producers but also on supporting them to build and lead businesses in the seaweed sector, enabling them to access financial support and opportunities in the $12 billion market.
