In the 2018 International Veterinary Vaccinology Network (IVVN) member survey nearly half of the women from LMICs who participated listed a lack of mentoring opportunities as one of their greatest professional challenges. In contrast, not a single male respondent from a high-income country reported this to be a challenge.
