The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals are internationally agreed aspirations to guide political action and development efforts until 2030. The guiding questions for this chapter were two-directional: What is the relevance of the SDGs for smallholder women? And, what do smallholder women contribute to the achievement of the SDGs? The chapter explores these questions through a narrative review on the evidence available and by systematically reviewing the indicators and targets of all 17 goals for visibility of smallholder women farmer. The co-authors analyze and interpret of what is captured and what is overlooked vis a vis smallholder women farmers in the SDGs considering their positioning both as potential agents and as potential beneficiaries of the goals. The chapter articulates critiques and limitations of the SDGs vis a vis this demographic and proposes priorities for the final six years of these SDGs and beyond.
