WHO WE ARE

Helen’s Daughters works at a grassroots level providing capacity-development training, mentorship, micro-investment, access to high-value markets and a structured care-system for women farmers, who have largely been unacknowledged and under-supported in the agricultural sector.

On the advocacy front, the organization leverages the media and partnerships with the public and private sectors to address gender inequalities by seeking opportunities for female farmers, as well as putting food security and climate resilience in the public and policy agenda. In this way, Helen’s Daughters is positioning women as key actors in driving sustainable development in the Caribbean.
