Livestock Livelihoods and Livestock Livelihoods and Agrifood Agrifood Systems Flagship Systems Flagship Steve Staal, flagship leader
Goal and objectives Goal and objectives The goal of the FP is to maximize the role of livestock in improving livelihoods and increasing resilience to risk among women and men smallholder, medium-scale and pastoral producers and their communities in target counties, while also increasing the supply of ASFs Flagship s Flagship s objectives objectives Conduct foresight, impact and policy analysis to set priorities and guide inclusive and sustainable investments by the CRP and by public and private actors. Improve livestock technology and innovation and adoption by ensuring that gender-based analysis informs research design and implementation across the CRP and that delivery and scaling outcomes are equitable. Identify, test, and facilitate livestock-mediated pathways to improve nutrition in resource poor households and their communities. Improve rural livelihoods, through integrated production technologies and institutional innovations in markets and services to improve the performance of animal-source food systems.
Outcomes to 2022 Outcomes to 2022 Gender equity relative to their level of effort (i.e. labour) at household level in the use of, and control of income generated by, livestock related productive assets and resources, impacting 288,000 women across four countries. Improved capacity of 1 million women and young people to participate in livestock related decision-making in five countries. Three million poor people (men and women), in four countries, with an increase in access to more affordable, safe, and nutrient rich animal-source foods. Innovative institutional options that improve resilience that are tested and adopted by national and international research & development partners, increasing the resilience of 356,000 rural livestock-keeping households (1.7 million individuals) in three countries. A 15% Increase, on average in total household income from livestock-related activities, including a 25% increase, on average, in the proportion controlled by women, for 449,000 households (& 2.2 million individuals) in eight countries. 454,000 livestock keeping households (representing 2.2 million individuals, including women) increase their supply of livestock to the market by 15%, on average, in seven countries. Policies and investment within and across four countries at local, country and regional level explicitly include pro-poor livestock mediated development, reaching 2 million livestock keepers & other value-chain actors.

How 2017 activities informed How 2017 activities informed 2018 plans 2018 plans All 2017 activities are being conducted through bilateral/W3 projects and ILRI Reserves as no W1/2 funds are available. Through these resources we were able to maintain most core staff and skills. The rewriting of our Flagship proposal led to a change in the Cluster structure (4 vs 5), and some streamlining where there had been potential overlaps. Our experience to date has also led us to focus on 4 countries and 3 systems Ethiopia small ruminants, Tanzania dairy, Uganda and Vietnam pigs. The following changes were applied to clusters: Policy and systems Policy and systems Gender Gender Nutrition Nutrition Technology and institutions Technology and institutions Previously the on-farm technology integration and institutional innovations were separate clusters. They have now been combined into this new cluster. New emphasis on working with other modelers (FAO) to improve global livestock models, and also improvement to national/sub-national modeling (LSIPT, SD). All policy work now here. Gender work now increasingly integrated into other FPs, and overall aims have been streamlined Due to lack of resources and capacity, aims are now less ambitious
COA1 Outcomes and Milestones COA1 Outcomes and Milestones Outcomes to 2022 1. investment and ex-ante impact assessments to guide priority setting, investment and policy development for the livestock sector in five priority countries, and within the Livestock CRP. National and international research partners and policymakers use analyses of livestock-sector dynamics, 2. problems based on their mandate areas International researchers and agencies use improved livestock system modelling tools, and apply them to new Milestones Improved data protocols, impact indicators and new model structures will be developed and documented (2020) impact assessments to guide priority setting for the livestock sector in three priority countries (2020). National and international research partners use analyses of livestock sector dynamics, investment and ex-ante based on bilateral support, and begin to adjust investments accordingly. National partners and their donors participate in new Livestock Master Plan development in three priority counties, in three priority countries (2020) Livestock system modelling tools and databases are improved with national and international partners to fit needs

Local or national development partners in four priority countries adopt gender-transformative and youth- Milestones Gender responsive livestock innovations tested and their impact assessed in two priority countries (2020) considerations (2020). Policy- or decision makers in two priority countries use evidence on the benefits of including gender equity their impact assessed in 4 priority countries (2022). Gender-transformative approaches that also support young people have been developed and tested and
COA3 Outcomes and Milestones COA3 Outcomes and Milestones Outcomes to 2022 adopt the most successful approaches for enhancing livestock-mediated nutritional impact, including institutional arrangements and behavioural change, in 3 priority countries. Local and national development actors, government agencies, and the private sector invest in and Milestones Local and national development actors and government agencies adopt tailored options for nutritional impact through livestock development, including behavioural approaches, within communities in Kenya (2020) cost-effective institutional arrangements and
COA4 Outcomes and Milestones COA4 Outcomes and Milestones Outcomes to 2022 1. institutional arrangements, taking the multiple functions of livestock into account. Livestock communities across four priority countries apply tested technologies, management strategies and 2. institutional arrangements to enhance competitiveness and inclusiveness. Milestones Livestock communities across two priority countries apply tested technologies, management strategies and institutional arrangements (2019). Development partners, private sector and government agencies across 4 priority countries apply innovative institutional arrangements to raise competitiveness and inclusiveness (2020) Three impact assessment studies conducted on Livestock CRP promoted technologies or institutional arrangements (2022) Development partners, private sector and government agencies in two priority countries apply innovative
