What happened
Morocco has adapted its limits regarding women's land ownership. This action occurs amid a broader regional effort led by ICARDA and IRRI to advance gender equality and social inclusion across food, land, and water systems in the Middle East and North Africa. Reports indicate that women own only 5% of agricultural land in the region and face systemic barriers to accessing land and capital.

Why it matters
The adaptation addresses systemic disadvantages faced by women farmers, who are crucial to regional agrifood systems. This shift in land access policies could influence the resilience and livelihoods of communities dependent on agriculture in the region.
