Women Reclaiming Sustainable Livelihoods cover

This volume highlights women's work sustaining local economies and environments, particularly in response to the current food, fuel and climate crises. It includes women's role in the green entrepreneurship, women's reproductive and productive work in the care economy, and a further examination of eco feminist debates.

"Women Reclaiming Sustainable Livelihoods is a timely, well-edited collection of essays that explores women's roles in, and relationship to, the sustainable development ne´e environmental movement . . . It unpacks the mainstream assumptions that negatively influence what Harcourt and the authors of the collection argue are truly sustainable approaches to women's and men's livelihoods." - Signs
