Spain

The Spanish LL is in the northern rural area, including mountainous regions, characterised by depopulation, a lack of social services, and masculinization. In some areas farm women are playing an important role in innovative and differentiated agri-food initiatives and rural women have been central in driving initiatives to provide social services for the good of the community. This Lab will identify the innovation needs of farming women involved in livestock and herbaceous crops, and rural women providing socio-ecological support services.
