Hearing their voices: Action research to support women’s agency and empowerment in livestock vaccine distribution, delivery and use in Rwanda, Uganda and Kenya
REFNo: A42ES
Objective #1: Gender analysis and baseline assessment- Identify and analyze the barriers, opportunities and strategies for improving women’s entry and participation in livestock ownership and vaccine value chain (VVC) in Rwanda, Uganda and Kenya.
• What gender, social, cultural, political, economic, technical barriers and perceptions impede women’s effective participation, define livestock ownership and decision making and prevent women from being beneficiaries of livestock vaccines as users, service providers and entrepreneurs?
• What factors and opportunities are needed or exist to enhance their participation in the VVC to increase livestock productivity and improve household food security?
Objective #2:VVC analysis- Conduct a VVC analysis focusing on PPR in Uganda, RVF in Rwanda and NCD in Kenya to determine if the VVC supports women empowerment and gender equality.
• What economic, socio-cultural, familial, legal, political and psychological networks shape the current VVC at the micro, meso and macro levels and how do these impact women small holder farmers? Who are VVC key players and how do they impact women empowerment and gender equality? What are the gender capacities (skills, knowledge, perceptions, attitudes, behavior) of the actors along the VVC?
Objective #3: Entry points- Test models that support women’s entry into the VVC and their impact on empowerment and livelihoods.
• What entry points exist along the VVC and how can they enhance women’s participation? What women’s agency and empowerment models address entrepreneurship, self-reliance, and cooperation?
• How can these models support women’s participation in and benefit from the VVC?
• What test models can support women’s entry and participation in the LOVVC?
• What is the impact of the models and what components have the potential to be scaled out and adapted to other community settings?
