THOUGHTS ▶▶▶ R Spotlight on Africa
ecently I visited an event in Brussels where the discussions were around an initiative in Sub-Saharan Af- rica and the strides being made with regard to animal welfare and veterinarian training, among others, when it comes to livestock production. The achievements in the livestock industry there have been phenomenal; they centre around sustainable production, animal health and professional development. As part of this, the focus has also been on improving livelihoods and addressing gender disparity in the sector. By taking care and nourishing this sector in Sub-Saharan Africa, food security in the region is also addressed. When it comes to gender and the farming community, women are an essential part of many farm operations. The majority of owners taking care of animals on smallholder farms in Sub-Saharan Africa are women. Thus, the event highlighted the importance of gender equality within the framework of sustainable livestock pro- duction to ensure that all those who play a role in the farm operation are armed with knowledge and trained in a way that will lead to better animal production and improved farmer livelihood. Emerging markets like these are an important part of the future, now is the time to roll out initiatives to focus on improvements. I am very pleased to visit events like these that empower those in the livestock sector, and I’m keen to hear more about achievements taking place globally. More about this initiative in Uganda, Nigeria, Ethiopia and Tanzania on page 18. Zana van Dijk, editor Dairy Global
