UN Women Stories | Isabel Deitliens - Lychee Farmer

We tell the story of Isabel Deitliens, a Mozambican woman who pursued her dream of becoming a commercial fruit farmer. Isabel took advantage of a UN Women-supported national strategy that increased Mozambican women’s access to farmland and productive resources. Isabel now owns and operates a successful fruit farm that exports to international markets.

African women are providers, leaders and innovators. They drive economic growth and build peace, yet for too long the African narrative has been out of their hands. UN Women stories is an opportunity to re-write herstory, and let African women tell it in their own words.
