Mr. Keithlin Caroo, Executive Director at Helen's Daughters and IICA Goodwill Ambassador for Sustainable Development shares the experiences of Helen's Daughters, which is a non-profit organisation based in St. Lucia and is now expanding to other islands of the Caribbean including St. Kitts & Nevis, focuses on the economic development of rural women through improved market access, adaptive agricultural techniques, and capacity-building. Helen's Daughters works at a grassroots level providing training, mentorship, micro-investment, access to high-value markets, and a structured care system for rural women farmers, who have largely been unacknowledged and under-supported in the agricultural sector. They also use advocacy to address gender inequalities by seeking opportunities for female farmers, and to put food security and climate resilience in the public and policy agenda. Helen's Daughters' advocacy involves leveraging media opportunities and partnerships with the public and private sectors to position rural women as key actors in driving sustainable development in the Caribbean. Ms. Caroo speaks on the program that Helen's Daughters offers to help empower women in agriculture which includes, the Agri-Apprenticeship Programme, FarmHers Market, Rural Women’s Ag-cademy and Women’s Farmers Academy among others.
