JOINT PRESS RELEASE<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Ambassador of Japan to Timor-Leste and CARE Celebrate the International Day of Rural Women in Atsabe<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Ermera, 19 October, 2023 \u2013 <\/strong>Celebrating the International Day of Rural Women, Ambassador of Japan to Timor-Leste, H.E. Kimura Tetsuya, participated in a women\u2019s leadership event organized by CARE in Atsabe, Ermera on 19th<\/sup> October. The event included horticulture market development and leadership activities for remote rural female farmers and was attended by H.E. Elvina de Sousa Carvalho, the Secretary State for Equality, Mr. Eusebio Salsinha, the President of Municipal Authority of Ermera, and Ms. Yeni Pereira, the Human Resources Director of CARE International in Timor-Leste.<\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/p>\n

Since 2020, the Government of Japan has been funding the “Atsabe Rural Development Project for Improvement of Agricultural Water Supply System in Ermera District (HAFORSA 2)\u201d Project with a project value of approximately 1 million USD. The HAFORSA 2 project aims to increase water availability in drought-prone areas by building water tanks and drip irrigation systems to help small-scale farmers increase their horticultural production throughout the year. Prior to the establishment of the water systems, the project collaborated with 12 local farmers groups to plan a sustainable maintenance mechanism for the water systems. Gender equality is embedded throughout all components of the project \u2013 for example these farmers groups have an equal number of men and women in each group. The project offers female farmers the opportunity to receive training in public speaking, enabling them to better engage and lead communal decision making processes. Additionally, activities to engage men and boys to promote gender equality, disrupt negative gender norms, and reduce gender-based violence complement these activities. This approach has been shown to be a crucial intervention to enabling men and boys to become allies in developing women’s leadership in the community.<\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/p>\n

H.E. Kimura Tetsuya, the Ambassador of Japan to Timor-Leste said, \u201cToday is the celebration of International Day of Rural Women. Women in Timor-Leste have been struggling with inequalities in economic situation, participation in decision making, education, labor balance and so on. In order to tackle these difficulties, Japan has been providing support to Timorese women in health, nutrition and education, including the HAFORSA 2 project\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/p>\n

Ms. Yeni Pereira, the Human Resources Director of CARE International in Timor-Leste said, “In addition to elevating rural women’s voice and providing opportunities for women\u2019s leadership within local decision-making structures, CARE\u2019s research shows that engaging men and boys from the start in such activities is key to the long term success of the project. Today is a celebration of the accomplishments and examples of \u2018best practice\u2019 coming from the project, which can be scaled and replicated in all rural, agricultural communities in the country”.<\/span><\/p>\n


<\/span><\/p>\n

Farmers who participate in the project were also invited to sell their horticultural products during the event, which aims to develop linkages to other markets. Some farmers groups already sell their produce to local schools as part of the school feeding program, while others sell vegetables in local markets. The HAFORSA 2 project is in its third year and will operate until February 2024. The Government of Japan and CARE are committed to supporting communities to deliver positive change beyond the project implementation period.<\/span><\/p>\n
