Ethiopian-Austrian research project with BOKU participation
Why do legal land rights not translate into real access for rural women? A joint Ethiopian-Austrian research project combined field studies, legal review and stakeholder dialogue to uncover the barriers women face in North-West Ethiopia.
The study employs mixed research methods (qualitative and quantitative) and was conducted through a close North-South partnership between Debre Markos University (DMU), Ethiopia, and the BOKU University Vienna, Austria.
In addition, the project was presented during a workshop dedicated to "Women’s Land Rights". This workshop was organized by the Institute and Cluster of Development Research (BOKU University) and funded by the Austrian Developing Agency.
