On Wednesday, May 4, the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) and Land O’Lakes Venture37 hosted the fourth webinar in our Livestock and Livelihoods series: "Women in Livestock: Breaking Gender Biases, Shifting Norms." 

Some two-thirds of the world’s 600 million most resource poor livestock keepers are women. On a daily basis, they will walk miles to gather forage plants, feed and water their family’s animals, clean and maintain the shelters, and collect milk and eggs. What most of these women don’t do is participate in livestock markets. In this webinar, you’ll hear from livestock scientists, development experts, and livestock-keeping women about practical and successful ways to begin to shift gender attitudes and practices to support women in entering, participating in, and financially benefiting from commercial livestock markets.
