Rural women as remittance receivers: Prevalence, access, use and opportunities for empowerment
Global Food and Nutrition Security

This report explores the structural factors influencing how women access and use remittances, as well as the conditions under which remittances can contribute to inclusive rural transformation. It draws on the 2025 Global Findex – the first dataset providing gender-disaggregated data on both international and domestic remittances – and on experiences from IFAD-supported initiatives in Nepal and The Gambia.
