Abstract

This chapter delves into the transformation of women's roles in development, tracing back to Ester Boserup's 'Women and Development' model in 1970. It discusses the shift from women's reproductive roles to their active participation in economic growth and decision-making processes. The case study of the 'Women Entrepreneurs of the Rural Community of Michiquillay' in Peru illustrates the practical implementation of these concepts, emphasizing the importance of transversal policies that consider cultural and geographical elements. The chapter also explores the challenges faced by rural women, such as lack of land ownership, limited access to education, and the need for gender-specific public policies. It concludes by highlighting the significance of women's participation in achieving sustainable development goals and the need for policies that reflect the unique dynamics of rural women.
