Both science and agriculture are often male-dominated. But this is starting to change as women take on stronger roles in science and farm management – and organizations commit to real progress.

In breeding operations, women have been marginalized all too often. But CGIAR and its national partners are starting to change this. CGIAR Excellence in Breeding and the Breeding Resources Initiative aim to be catalysts for change by working with its partners to make farming operations more gender-inclusive.
