women’s lack of access and control over productive resources and services, reduces fundraising for agriculture and entrepreneurship and does not promote good inclusion. So, we need to know the challenges for solid solution approaches.

- persistent inequalities between men and women in terms of access to land
- exclusion of women, young people and the poor from land tenure decisions
solution

- Set up a land inclusion system in the member states;
- Motivate rural women and help them own land to increase the mobilization of agricultural investment;
- Motivate access to land through the inheritance system
