The Small Ruminant Collaborative Research Support Program at the University of Missouri has devel-oped a set of papers on gender and livestock in Bolivia, Peru, Kenya, and Indonesia and is exploring possibilities of publishing them in book form. The papers present a wide variety of research themes that focus on the Pro-gram's on-farm research activities on the role of small ruminants in peasant economies and communities with different degrees of market integration, with gender as one of the research variables. Some of the Program's publications are available through its website at http://www.ssu.missouri.edu/SSU/SRCRSP/.
