Abstract

Institutionalized gender discrimination and structural violence
impose barriers to women enjoying the right to adequate food
and nutrition. We need harmonization of legal, institutional, and
policy mechanisms that could promote a gendered analysis of,
and action on, the intersection of all of women’s rights over the
lifetime and the right to adequate food.
