In partnership with the International Crops for Research Institute for Semi-Arid Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) and the International Potato Center (CIP), International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) will lead the implementation of AVCD. The three CGIAR centres will work closely with partners—county governments, NGOs, CBOs, private sector actors and other USAID-funded projects/programs, as well as leverage knowledge and best practices from academic institutions and foundations.

In addition to organizations recognized for specific projects and outputs, we thank all donors which globally supported the work of ILRI and its partners through their contributions to the CGIAR system
