dc.description.abstractIn Ghana, backyard poultry and goat production systems are the most predominant and play a key role in the livelihoods of smallholder farmers especially women, who are usually in charge of these species in the household. However, women do not get the full benefit of rearing these species because of many factors including diseases such as Newcastle, peste des petits ruminants (PPR), and contagious caprine pleuropneumonia, which are the main causes of death for chicken and goats. These are viral disease, which has no treatment but can only be prevented through vaccines. Although vaccines for these diseases exist in Ghana, they are often inaccessible by women due to a variety of barriers, including delivery systems that are not centered on women's needs, preferences, and capabilities; mobility challenges for women livestock owners; and gender norms that affect women's ownership and management of livestock.en
