What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

A study published in 2025, supported by the United Nations Population Fund, found that nearly half of rural women in Cuba had no personal income in 2024. Separately, official statistics show that women hold only 23% of agricultural land titles, compared to 77% for men, according to the Cuban Observatory on Gender Equality.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The disparity is compounded by land access issues; 36.1% of female titleholders possess less than one hectare of land, double the proportion of men. Research also documented that the proportion of men with their own income surpasses that of women by over 20 percentage points nationwide, with the gap widening in rural areas.
