Researcher Nada Abdulaziz Abdullah Al-Hakimi has been awarded a Master’s degree with distinction in International Development Studies from the Inclusive Development Research Center at Sana’a University. Her thesis, titled “The Developmental Role of Women in Improving the Food Security of Yemeni Families,” was defended on Saturday, February 15, 2025.<\/p>\n

The discussion and examination committee comprised Dr. Abdul Salam Ahmed Al-Dar as the external examiner and committee chair, Associate Professor Sakinah Hashem as the internal examiner and committee member, and Dr. AbdulWahab Abdul Qader as the principal supervisor and committee member.<\/p>\n

The thesis aimed to investigate the developmental role of women in improving the food security of Yemeni families in the Sana’a Governorate.<\/p>\n

The study revealed several significant findings, notably that women lacked the necessary resources to cultivate certain vegetables at home or raise poultry. Even when some resources were available, there was a noticeable absence of a culture of home gardening and poultry farming among household heads in Yemen. Yemeni families remain in a precarious situation, caught between food security and food insecurity, classified in the IPC Food Security Analysis between Phase Three (Emergency) and Phase Four (Crisis).<\/p>\n

In her thesis, the researcher provided several recommendations, including the launch and implementation of awareness campaigns highlighting the importance of home gardening to promote agricultural culture. Additionally, she suggested increasing awareness of poultry farming practices, such as raising chickens, as well as livestock like sheep and cows. She urged governmental bodies to address the food security situation of Yemeni families, emphasizing that decision-makers should prioritize families in Phases One and Two, as they are the most affected. Furthermore, attention should be given to the small segment of individuals and families still suffering from acute hunger, unable to access food for an entire day.<\/p>\n

The defense was attended by a number of academics, researchers, students, and interested individuals, along with several colleagues and family members of the researcher.<\/p>\n
