“…This study builds on previous research carried out by Nordic Thematic Group on Innovative and Resilient Regions 2017 -2020 established by the Nordic Council of Ministers. In particular, a study on Social and Economic Resilience in the Bothnian Arc Cross-Border Region (Giacometti et al 2019), and a study on Skills Policies -Building Capacities for Innovative and Resilient Nordic Regions (Lundgren et al 2020).…”

“…Being relatively remote, the situation for the Bothnian Arc cross-border region is yet more challenging compared to core cities and regions in the Nordic countries and Europe. Previous studies in the region, such as Social and Economic Resilience in the Bothnian Arc Cross-Border Region (Giacometti et al, 2019;Giacometti & Teräs 2019a, and Cross-Border Public Services (CPS): Case study Report -Bothnian Arc (Berlina 2018), have shed some light on the status of skills supply and demand, key challenges, and the opportunities of cross-border collaboration. Unfavourable demographic trends, such as emigration, urbanisation and a rapidly ageing population are the primary threat to skills supply and to the overall economic and social resilience of the region.…”

This paper presents evidence on the gender differentiated effects in the nucleus-estate outgrower arrangement from a case study of a sugarcane outgrower scheme in the community of Magobbo, Zambia. Specifically, the paper explores women's participation in the scheme, access to employment, decision-making, control of household income, and access to natural resources. Women are disadvantaged in these areas overall, though there is a key generational difference. As well, both women and men enjoy increased economic stability and improvements in family diets. I find that the outcomes observed are influenced by: 1) the existing inequalities in access to land and discriminatory gender norms; 2) the institutional arrangements of the outgrower model; and 3) the gendered division of labour. These findings contribute a nuanced discussion of the gender differentiated effects of agricultural investments to the literature on women in contract farming and large-scale land acquisitions for agriculture.iii
