Celebrating International Women's Day with Alessandra Galiè
This blog was first published by Cambridge Global Food Security Interdisciplinary Research Centre profiling female researchers and academics involved in agriculture/food security every year for International Women's Day.
To celebrate the 2022 International Women's Day theme of promoting women's equality, and to honour the work that women do to help make our world more food secure, this year the Cambridge Global Food Security Interdisciplinary Research Centre is profiling women who work in gender development.
In this interview, Alessandra Galiè, the gender team lead at the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) reflects on how gender norms in Ghana impact female livestock farmers' access to veterinary services, and how the project she is working with is approaching this challenge.
