Veterinarians Without Borders U.S.A. is a registered non-profit 501(c)(3) organization (EIN/tax ID number: 92-2618654).
Based on field insights from Senegal, this blog examines how VWB’s COHERS program is helping drive early gender-transformative change at the household level — reshaping who decides, who acts, and how families respond to risks affecting both human and animal health.
