Critical review
دراسة نقدية: على الرغم من أن الدراسة تقدم رؤى قيمة حول تأثير مشاريع الإنتاج الحيواني على المرأة الريفية، إلا أنها قد تكون محدودة من حيث التعميم بسبب حجم العينة والمناطق الجغرافية المحددة. قد يكون من المفيد توسيع نطاق البحث ليشمل مناطق أخرى من سورية للحصول على صورة أكثر شمولية. كما أن الدراسة تركز بشكل كبير على الآثار الاقتصادية والاجتماعية المباشرة دون التطرق بشكل كافٍ إلى التحديات التي تواجهها النساء في تنفيذ وإدارة هذه المشاريع. بالإضافة إلى ذلك، قد يكون من المفيد تضمين تحليل نوعي لتجارب النساء واستكشاف العوامل الثقافية والاجتماعية التي قد تؤثر على نجاح المشاريع.
