dc.descriptionSustainable Development Goal (SDG) five promotes women’s empowerment and equality of opportunities between men and women. FAO is dedicated to achieve this goal: it recognizes the essential role women play in agriculture and that eliminating inequalities between genders is important to building sustainable and inclusive food systems (FAO, 2020). To this end, it is important to understand women’s role in agriculture through available evidence. The FAO Africa Sustainable Livestock 2050 (ASL 2050) collected data on the practices of actors of the poultry value chain in selected subregions in urban and peri-urban areas of Kenya and Uganda through key informant interviews. This brief presents results of this survey disaggregated by gender providing an insight on women’s role and behaviour in urban and peri-urban poultry farms that are likely to become more and more relevant in the future given the current demand and production trends. To our knowledge, it is the first time gender disaggregated data are presented on adoption of biosecurity related practices across the poultry value chain.
