Women in agro-pastoral societies in Tanzania typically have low incomes, limited access to resources and are of poor nutritional status. The project methodology addresses gender roles, access, control and ownership of resources, and decision-making among smallholders. It provides a model for establishing dairy goat enterprises in semi-arid areas and has created new hope in test communities, helping alleviate low agricultural productivity and malnutrition.1 digital file (4 p. : ill.)application/pdfenTANZANIAWOMEN IN AGRICULTURELIVESTOCKGENDER ROLESFODDERANIMAL HUSBANDRYMALNUTRITIONGOATSSOUTH OF SAHARAROOT CROPSFOOD SECURITYSEMIARID ZONEBridging gender gaps with dairy goats and root cropsPolicy Brief
