While reading an article Morten Scholer posted about women in coffee, I read just as I expected. A majority of women are involved in coffee production and trade, but are being offered the resources they need to soar beyond subsistence farming. One organization is paying particular attention to these needs, “ITC is currently supporting the Eastern African Fine Coffees Association (EAFCA) with development programmes in 11 countries, including a component on women in the coffee sector. The role of women in coffee has been included as one of the themes at the next annual EAFCA coffee conference…” (Scholer, 32).
