    Expert Panel: Integrating Gender into Global Livestock System Development

    On July 22, 2022, a panel discussion was held online featuring experts working at the nexus of gender integration and livestock. The panelists highlighted key, practical, and readily available resources that development practitioners can use to effectively integrate gender in livestock program design and implementation. Panelists discussed ongoing research in the field of livestock and gender, including their views on persistent knowledge gaps, developing trends, and other issues on the horizon in the sector.

    Presented by the Bureau for Resilience and Food Security of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), in cooperation with the Feed the Future Innovation Lab for Livestock Systems.
