Case studyDescription
Oxfam and its partners are working to support economic justice and livelihoods improvements for disadvantaged women smallholders in Tajikistan. The programme promotes the development of producer groups and other forms of organization among women farmers to enable them to lobby collectively for access to land, means of production and markets. The programme is designed to support increased efficiency and productivity at the farm level. This case study explores what Oxfam has learned through the implementation of the programme to date.
This learning case study is part of a series of eight papers relating to Oxfam's economic justice programme in the Middle East, Asia and Eastern Europe, with a focus on collective action.
