Welcome to Helen's Daughters

We use Agriculture as an entry-point for overall development!


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 rural 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 rural women as key actors in driving sustainable development in the Caribbean.

We train our farmers on the nutritional content of what they produce, we host health clinics targeting rural communities, along with giving farmers access to medical insurance.

Advocacy

For far too long women’s roles have been untold in the agricultural sector, we aim to highlight the roles of women and redefine what it means to be a woman in this field.

"We advance economic justice for rural women in the Caribbean region by supporting women farmers to engage in sustainable agriculture and removing the barriers for their market participation."
