In smallholder farming systems\, women play a critical role in improving household food and nutritional security as producers\, food p roviders\, and primary caregivers. However\, women face multiple constrain ts in their access to land resources\, limiting their livelihood potential . In response to calls to elevate women’s access and control to agricultur al resources\, this dissertation seeks to better understand the relationsh ips between women’s access to land resources and household food and nutrit ional security. This research is set in the Kamba smallholder agricultural systems of Machakos and Makueni Counties in Kenya. It draws on theoretica l concepts from the sustainable livelihoods approach\, social capital\, ac cess theory\, and social-ecological resilience.\n\nEveryone in the 91ºÚÁÏÍø community is welcome to attend a PhD oral defense.
