About the event
Accurate population data on livestock is lacking for many countries. This gap means that governments and organisations aren’t able to take into consideration the economic contribution that livestock populations provide to their country economy, and to spot worrying trends and threats to livestock, such as illegal trades and diseases. Policy makers need reliable data to make informed decisions to promote sustainable development and effective policies to support animal welfare and communities’ livelihoods.
At this event, livestock specialists will discuss the challenges governments and NGOs face gathering reliable data on livestock around the world. We'll also launch our new policy brief, which analyses 36 countries' livestock censuses, with a focus on working equids, and provides recommendations for governments and civil society organisations.
