LPP’s Ilse Köhler-Rollefson participated in a high-level meeting held in Thailand from 1-4th December, 2011 that sought to formulate a Global Agenda of Action for a Sustainable Livestock Sector. Hosted by the FAO and the Thai government, some 45 participants agreed on focusing on three particular themes that exemplify some of the problems bogging down the sustainability of livestock production worldwide.

In order to introduce the concept to a wider audience and discuss existing experiences, LIFE Network Africa and LPP are hosting a Workshop on Bio-Cultural Protocols: An Emerging Approach to Strengthening Livestock Keeping Communities.

Deadline for registration is November 15th
