Our Approach

CPD works across the entire livestock value chain building resilience for pastoralists against climate shocks and market volatility.

How We Work

  • One Health Surveillance:  Lead regional early warning systems with 650+ Community-Based Animal Health Workers providing real-time outbreak reporting.
  • Breed Improvement:  Introduce high-yield, climate-resilient cattle and goat breeds increasing milk production by 2–3×.
  • Livestock Insurance:  Provide index-based insurance to 6,000+ pastoralists reducing asset losses by up to 70% during droughts.
  • Poultry Development:  Established 300+ women-led cooperatives and trained 2,400 households.
  • Value Addition & Markets:  Pilot milk collection centers and link producers to Gulf-based buyers.
  • Policy Engagement:  Support the National Livestock Sector Development Strategy (2024–2030).
