اظهر المزيد [+] اقل [-]In Nepal, women are often the primary caretakers of goats. However, they experience differentiated access to animal health services due to caste. Women from upper castes have better access to veterinary services, inputs, and information, enabled by their membership in goat cooperatives. Women from lower castes, on the other hand, have restricted membership in goat cooperatives and thus, less access to local animal health service providers and services. Consequently, they are less able to benefit from animal health campaigns or small livestock related business opportunities compared to upper caste women. A study by the University of Florida demonstrated the importance of integrating a Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) approach in animal health delivery to reach, benefit and empower women of lower castes and other marginalized goat-rearing communities to improve livestock productivity and health.
