Grassland ecosystems are areas where grasses and other herbaceous plants form the dominant vegetation, while trees and shrubs are relatively limited. They occur in different forms across the world, including tropical savannas, temperate prairies, steppes and semi-arid grasslands.

Their significance becomes especially relevant to gender sensitization because access to, control over and dependence on natural resources are often influenced by gender roles and social structures. Grasslands support a wide variety of plants, animals, insects, birds and microorganisms. They provide habitat and feeding grounds for herbivores such as cattle, sheep, antelopes and other wild animals, as well as predators and numerous bird species.
