תקציר	The Women's Empowerment in Agriculture Index (WEAI) is a survey-based composite measure developed in 2013 by IFPRI, the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative, and USAID's Feed the Future initiative to capture women's empowerment, agency, and inclusion in the agricultural sector. It uses the Alkire-Foster dual-cutoff counting method to aggregate five domains of empowerment (the 5DE) and adds a Gender Parity Index that compares each woman to the primary man in her own household. A widely used project-level adaptation, pro-WEAI, was released in 2019 for use in evaluating development projects.	Time-use analysis measures how people allocate their time across activities — paid work, unpaid domestic and care work, leisure, sleep, and more — typically using detailed daily diaries collected through time-use surveys. It is the foundational method for making visible the unpaid and care work that gross domestic product ignores, and it is central to gender studies because it quantifies the unequal division of household labor between women and men.
