Helen’s Daughters works at a grassroots level providing capacity-development training, mentorship, micro-investment, access to high-value markets and a structured care-system for women farmers, who have largely been unacknowledged and under-supported in the agricultural sector.
On the advocacy front, the organization leverages the media and partnerships with the public and private sectors to address gender inequalities by seeking opportunities for female farmers, as well as putting food security and climate resilience in the public and policy agenda. In this way, Helen’s Daughters is positioning women as key actors in driving sustainable development in the Caribbean.

For the first time, Helen's Daughters brought members together in a truly regional hybrid experience, connecting women in person in Saint Lucia and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, and virtually from Saint Kitts and Nevis, Dominica, and Grenada. 💚 Our Town Hall gave members the opportunity to hear updates from our regional team, learn about upcoming programmes and partnerships, meet our newly established volunteer committees, and most importantly, share their ideas, experiences, and feedback to help shape the future of Helen's Daughters. Thank you to everyone who joined us. Your voices continue to strengthen our community as we grow, thrive, earn, and belong. #HelensDaughters #Community #WomenInAgriculture #CaribbeanAgriculture
