In #Fiji, Alena used to rely on wild herbs for nutrition. With #JPRWEE, she planted vegetables in her garden to improve food security of her family and community.

Today, she represents women, manages a cooperative store and inspires others to start their own gardens.

For rural women, equal rights to access land mean greater security, dignity and opportunity.

For women like Asia, this means being better equipped to support their families, plan ahead, and build a more secure future.

Through the @JPRWEE, UN Women supports efforts to advance women’s land rights in 🇹🇿, helping strengthen livelihoods and resilience.
