FAO Official Highlights UAE Women's Role in Food Security
The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) celebrates the International Year of Women Farmers 2026, emphasizing that empowering women within agricultural and food systems represents a strategic investment in food security and sustainability. The UAE's experience demonstrates how knowledge and technology can turn environmental challenges, such as water scarcity and deserts, into opportunities for innovation in sustainable agriculture and food security. Emirati women contribute across various fields including smart, water, and environmental agriculture, playing a pivotal role in shaping more sustainable solutions, supported by national initiatives such as "Nuzhur for Sustainability" and "Empowering Women Farmers." FAO affirms that expanding women's participation leads to higher productivity, stimulates innovation, and fosters economic growth, with ten prominent women honored at the upcoming Global Food Security Summit in Abu Dhabi in October 2026.
