Abstract

This report provides an assessment of the vaccine value chain (VVC) for livestock diseases, in particular Newcastle disease (ND) for poultry and Peste des Petits Ruminants (PPR) for small ruminants, focusing on the Kaffrine region in Senegal. Besides obtaining a more comprehensive mapping of the ND and PPR vaccine value chain, this report contributes to the project goal of identifying the barriers in access to, and participation in VVC due to gender and intersectionality factors (such as caste, ethnicity, age, wealth, education, religion, and livelihood), as well as the opportunities to increase women’s engagement in VVC in the region.
