Making sense of the big picture: Maps with gender factors to improve project targeting

Catherine Pfeifer took up the challenge of integrating gender into the maps she produced.

These maps can be used for assessing whether a particular technology might be adopted in a certain context. Interview with Catherine Pfeifer (ILRI) for the book "A different kettle of fish?
