As part of the impact evaluation of the five-year “Women’s Food Security Program for Impoverished Maasai Households” project, the final round of data was recently collected in Northern Tanzania. The AMRE team cleansed the dataset and checked it for internal consistency before analyzing preliminary trends that determine the relationship between women’s empowerment and food security.
