Abstract
Gendered Livelihoods Insurance Among Smallholder Women Farmers in Southern Nigeria: Policy Influences A qualitative approach was employed to gather insights from interviews with stakeholders, including government officials and insurance providers. Current insurance policies need to be more inclusive and tailored to meet the specific needs of female farmers to ensure equitable coverage. Policy makers should prioritise developing targeted insurance schemes that address the unique challenges faced by women in agriculture.
