Shifting South: Horticulture regional value chains and decent work in Africa

Global Development Institute podcast

In the second of our Shifting South series, Stephanie Barrientos talks to Margareet Visser and Maggie Opondo. They reflect on the project and their research into horticultural value chains.
Shifting South investigated:

• the rise of South-South trade through regional and domestic markets
• what this means for decent work – especially women in precarious jobs
• and looked at specific commodities and value chains in the horticulture and garment sectors in South Africa, Lesotho and Kenya.
