| description |
In Western Uganda, women farmers and
their households were facing widespread agricultural and
non-agricultural income shocks in September 2020, indicating
a protracted crisis. To cope with these shocks, many
households liquidated productive agricultural assets. Women
who had higher decision-making power within the household
before the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) crisis,
appeared to cope better with post-outbreak shocks by
engaging in more income-generating activities and having
better food security in the household. |
